Top 7 Ways to Fix Chrome Keeps Logging Me Out Issue 

Signing in to Google Chrome has many advantages. For example, your browsing data, passwords, bookmarks, etc. are constantly synchronized on all devices. Most importantly, you don’t need to repeatedly sign in to Google services like Gmail, Drive, etc., every time you close Chrome. Unfortunately, some Chrome users are signing out of their Google accounts on Chrome. Let’s see how to fix the problem if Chrome is preventing you from signing out.

Typically, if you’re signed in to Chrome, closing the browser shouldn’t sign you out. This will annoy anyone who would have to re-enter their account credentials every time for Google services.

Fortunately, the problem can be easily fixed with the few troubleshooting tips mentioned here. Let’s see them.

1. Restart the computer

Many of us put our computers into sleep or hibernate mode for days without shutting down properly. Restarting a computer fixes various issues on your PC and will update the Chrome browser as well. If you haven’t restarted for a long time, it would be a good idea to start the troubleshooting process for Chrome by restarting your device.

2. Enable cookies

You must enable cookies on your browser if you want to stay logged in to websites. So take a look at the Chrome settings and see if cookies are enabled or not. Here are the steps:

Step 1: Click on the three-dot icon at the top right of Chrome. Select Settings from the menu.

2nd step: Click on Cookies and other site data.

If you do not see the option, click on Site settings and then on Cookies.

Step 3: Choose Allow all cookies. Relaunch Chrome.

3. Check the cookie settings

If cookies were already enabled or after having enabled them as indicated above, you should check certain cookie settings that could log you out of Chrome.

First, turn off the button next to “Clear cookies and site data when you exit Chrome”.

Also, scroll down and check the websites listed under “Always clear cookies when windows are closed” and “Sites that can never use cookies”. If you are logged out from only one particular website, remove it from these two lists.

4. Clear cache

Sometimes a corrupted cache file can also be responsible for not keeping you signed in to Chrome. To fix this problem, you will need to clear the cache in Chrome. Do not worry. None of your data, such as favorites, passwords, etc., will be deleted. Clearing the cache will only delete temporary files.

To clear Chrome’s cache, open Chrome settings. Click Clear browsing data under Privacy and security.

A pop-up screen opens. Click on the Advanced tab. Select Hourly under the Time range option and check the box next to Cached images and files. The rest should be unchecked. Then click on the Clear data button.

Point: Find out how to clear Chrome cache and cookies from a single site.

5. Activate Allow connection to Chrome

If you sign in to Google sites like Gmail, YouTube, etc., but Chrome doesn’t allow you to stay signed in to sync services, chances are you’ve turned off the Allow Sign In to Chrome feature. When disabled, you can sign in to Google sites without signing in to Chrome. You might think that Chrome is signing you out.

To resolve this issue, you need to enable the Allow connection to Chrome setting. Here are the steps:

Step 1: Go to Chrome’s settings from the three-dot icon at the top.

2nd step: Click Synchronization and Google Services under You and Google.

Step 3: Activate the switch to Allow connection to Chrome.

6. Disconnect Google account from Chrome

If you use Chrome’s sync feature to stay signed in, you should try to sign your Google account out of Chrome for a while. Adding it back after logging out should fix the problem.

To do this, follow these steps:

Step 1: Go to Chrome settings.

2nd step: Click Deactivate next to your name and email address under You and Google. This will sign you out of Chrome and other Google sites. Your favorites, passwords, browsing history, etc. existing ones will not be deleted.

Step 3: Relaunch Chrome and go to settings again. Click Activate and add your Google account details to sign in to Chrome. Hopefully every time you close Chrome now you won’t be logged out.

7. Reset Chrome settings

Finally, you should try to reset your Chrome settings. It will also fix the disconnect issue on Chrome resulting from various changed settings or extensions. Resetting Chrome won’t delete your bookmarks, passwords, or data. Find out in detail what is happening by resetting Chrome before continuing.

To reset Chrome, open Chrome settings. Scroll down and click on Advanced to view more options.

Scroll down and click “Restore Default Settings”. Confirm on the next screen.
