Hello,
We verified this on Windows 11x64, MacOS 26.5 , with Firefox Enterprise 152.0 (20260616050315) and the issue no longer reproduces.
The "Sign Out", "Manage account" and "Connect another device" buttons are no longer present on the Settings page.
We will check this on Beta as well and marj the ticket acordingly.
Thank you.
