Using containers for different accounts (aussie.zone)

I’m trying to set containers for some websites on a shared windows terminal with multiple users under the same login. We use some cloud software and each user has their own log in. Manually opening websites in container manager allows this, but I’m struggling to do so for opening in container for the home page.

Each log in just launches in the default container (unassigned). I’ve tried using bookmark tree, which seems to support containers, but I can’t get it to work. Assigning a site to always open in a container doesn’t seem to work either as it’s the same site for multiple users (which seems to be the purpose of multi account container), so if it always opens in container A, person B still needs to manually open in their container.

Probably not exactly what you're asking for (but maybe try finding an extension that does it?), but would it be an option to set Firefox to always Open previous windows and tabs? AFAIK that also restores their container associations.

Oh, that might work. If it restores container association, it should do what we need. Thanks for that.
