The app refuses to save more than one "proton-session" cookies records set

I have multiple proton accounts, and everything has been going swimmingly until recently.
Now I get this error message alert box filling my screen with duplicate error messages that I need to close to be able to read my mail.
The app refuses to save more than one "proton-session" cookies records set (accessTokens count: 2, refreshTokens count: 2).
I have been unable to find anything related to this issue.
Not sure what other info to provide.
Cheers
The situation like this not supposed to happen, so the app detects invalid case and shows the error message you posted. Regarding preventing this situation to happen, clearly there is a session saving/applying-related edge case that the app didn't take into the account yet.
The workaround is removing session.bin located in the settings folder and restarting the app. This will force you to sign in into the email accounts due to the saved sessions data got dropped.
Thank you.
That has done the trick.
In the next release, the app is going to save multiple "proton-session" cookies records. The proper approach would be in keeping only the actual/valid records set, but this requires thorough debugging, which at this time I'm going to replace with filtering by Proton as I tested this change for some time and the actual/valid record is being well picked by Proton since I get successfully signed in.
To recap, the above-described workaround for the annoying edge case should not be needed anymore since the next app release (the change is already available in the wip branch).
