The EDGE browser requires me to re-log in to all of my accounts every time I open it after the computer has been closed. The option to save passwords was checked in the settings.

Question

Every time I open Edge after the computer has been shut down, I have to log in to all of my accounts.

In the settings I have all saving passwords options on. (Please see attached screenshot).

What is going on?

Hi @David China Woolf,

It looks like the image you mentioned was not posted correctly. Secondly, according to your description, this is usually caused by the browser settings.

Please check this:

Open Microsoft Edge and navigate to edge://settings/clearBrowsingDataOnClose, and then check that you have any options checked, which will cause the data stored in that section to be cleared when Edge is closed. Something like this:

Make sure both of these are off and that should fix your problem.

Best regards,
