Context menu prevail after unistalling.
Hi, I've uninstalled Containers and the right-click context menu over a link shows "Open link in a new container tab" sub-menu. How can get rid of it without reinstalling/refreshing FF?
Testing this now.
@chinook77 unfortunately I think you will need to restart Firefox to remove this, it appears to be an issue with Firefox itself.
Do you have any other extensions installed?
- Can you paste the output of about:support page
- Can you provide your OS, version and Firefox version
Thanks
I can't replicate, STR followed:
- enable
privacy.userContext.enabledin about:config - Install containers test pilot
- Make some container tabs and load pages
- Remove containers
- Uninstall containers in about:plugins
Expected behaviour:
- Container tabs still exist
- Underline on tabs was removed
- Context menu removed
- Browser action removed

I've realized that "Open Link in New Tab" is broken too.

@kjozwiak are you able to replicate this?
Maybe this is a dupe of #440
I've also encountered this, although it was preceded by an inability to not open non-Container tabs from the context menu. I'm running the newest build of Nightly on Windows 10 and can dump about:support if you all believe it will help. EDIT: This persists after a refresh, reinstall, and change of profile. EDIT 2: Toggling "privacy.userContext.enabled" to False actually fixes it, though it beats me as to how and why.

@zephyrmoth thanks toggling privacy.userContext.enabled worked for me
I'm also encountering this issue this Firefox 55.0.2 (64-bit) in Ubuntu 16.04.
The privacy.userContext.enabled trick worked for me too.
I too wanted to say that I had the "Open Link in New Container Tab" after uninstall. Toggling privacy.userContext.enabled removed the options, but I would expect the uninstall behavior to do this for me.
For anyone curious, it appears that containers were a core feature introduced in Firefox 50 nightly.
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Contextual_Identity_Project/Containers
It is safe to go to about:config and toggle the "privacy.userContext.enabled" to false to remove the containers menu.
Also, the extension basically exposes about:preferences#containers
Same here.
Bump, found this defect was already opened after I wrote up a new one so pasting that information here.

Actual behavior
After disabling or removing Firefox Multi-Account Containers, the context menu when right clicking a hyperlink continues to display "Open Link in New Container Tab" along with any container names you previously created.
Expected behavior
Context menu options should be removed when disabling or removing addon.
Steps to reproduce
- Restart firefox with all addons disabled.
- Install Firefox Multi-Account Containers
- Remove or disable Firefox Multi-Account Containers
- Right Click a hyperlink to see "Open Link in New Container Tab" menu option.
Not reproducible with Firefox 88. Tested with removal of the extension.
Unchecking Enable Container Tabs in Settings->General->Tabs in Firefox 124 works for me. I suppose this is the same as toggling privacy.userContext.enabled.
