I only have 3 add-ons but 1 of them (Multi-Account Containers) isn't showing an icon in the toolbar. It is on and updated in the add-ons section but isn't showing.

I am using a Windows 10 PC. It shows up on my Macbook and all my Firefox settings are the same on both computers. I am using the latest version of Firefox.

You can't use containers in PB mode.

Make sure you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode (Always use Private Browsing mode; Never Remember History).

  • Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security
    Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
  • remove checkmark: [ ] "Always use Private Browsing mode"
