Details
I created a Facebook container which I now want to delete so that I can play with the specific Facebook container extension.
When in the containers preferences I go to delete it, I get a message "If you remove this Container now, 1 container tab will be closed. Are you sure you want to remove this Container?"
I click on "Remove this Container" button, then nothing happen.
I played with other containers and they can be removed so long as they don't contain a tab.

Without further information I don't think this belongs under Firefox. I think this likely belongs to the Multi-Accounts Containers extension (https://github.com/mozilla/multi-account-containers, I believe?)
Additionally I can't seem to reproduce this on my end, so you may want to provide more detail.

It sounds like this error is coming from https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/dd7e27f4a805e4115d0dbee70e1220b23b23c567/browser/components/preferences/in-content/containers.js#82 I haven't seen this before.
As we don't have a component, we usually put this in "Firefox: Security" and make it depend on block "ContextualIdentity" aka Bug 1191418

I don't know what more details I can provide.
Before installing the new Facebook extension, I had manually created a new Facebook container and I had a facebook tab opened in it.
Attempting to delete this Facebook container didn't do anything.

Add-ons all diabled: "Troobleshoot mode on"
I have a couple of dozen containers, created by Simple Tab Groups: temporary containers all, which can't be deleted now, and not deleted by the extension automatically before - but this is another issue, even the extension is classified "Recommended" by Mozilla
there should be a way to delete all container, without any condition which is not the case actually
