I had similar issues when Firefox upgraded to 115 ESR, the fix was to change the Container Number from "Hide" to "Keep counting until browser restart" (your TC_preferences.txt show that you are using the Hide option)
Yeah! It works! Thanks! How were you able to find such a workaround? This seems so unrelated with the issue...

I basically went through every setting in TC to find the issue. Also, I believe container number can be set to anything but 'Hide'.
I'm running Firefox 115 ESR (115.4.0 ESR) with Temporary Containers 1.9.2 , just opened about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox
and did not encounter the above mentioned issue. Mode is Automatic and Container Number set to "Reuse available numbers". I've tested with "Hide" and faced no issue as well.
Maybe a compatibility issue with another extension dealing with userContent containers, in particular 'Firefox Multi-Account Containers' (I use none besides TC)? Be noted that in last resort it is always possible to delete the containers.json file in the user's Firefox profile, which gets rebuilt on Firefox restart (take care if using any other container extension which would include your container(s) user data).
Hey, thanks for your feedback. I will have a look and test it with ESR.

The issue occurs even with a clean Firefox profile with no extension. So the problem may come from elsewhere
Actual behavior
On Firefox startup, Temporary Containers (TC) doesn't work. After reinstalling TC, when I enter a URL in the address bar of Firefox, or when I click a link, nothing happens. If I click a link while pressing the Ctrl key, a new tab opens with the correct URL in the address bar but the page doesn't load. This misbehavior happens only if TC is enabled.
Expected behavior
I want web pages to load if I enter their URL or if I click a link pointing to them.
Steps to reproduce
NB: Everytime "click" occurs in the following, you should understand "left-click":
Notes
step 2: If any page beginning with
about:debugging#/
is open in Firefox (for example:about:debugging#/setup
orabout:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox
), then when you click "Reload Add-on and hope the best", the red E disappears, and you can access the settings. So it seems you don't have to reinstall TC. Skip to step 5. The behavior remains the same as described above.
