All websites i'm logged into are being dislogined approximately once a month. I'm sure i don't have any active cleaner or smth else. For example, one day everything is ok, andon the next I see that I'm signed out from all my websites, including all google accounts, etc. Problem started approximately when Opera updated itself to "Opera One".

@andrey7907 I'm experiencing a similar issue, though in my case, all websites, including Google, Amazon, Facebook, and others, are getting disconnected almost daily.

@davide98 I have noticed, the issue is probably somehow connected to Tab: History -> Delete data. Inside there are some options to choose from "24 hours", "7 days", "4 weeks", "From all time". And opera for some reason automatically deletes data when the chosen period comes. (If "4 weeks" selected, it deletes it every 4 weeks. If 24 hours - every day. And the most strange thing, when chosen "From all time", it deletes data every day as well).

@andrey7907 I tried as you suggested, but the situation hasn't changed
It also disconnects from the Opera account.

@andrey7907 So, you're saying that if you goto the URL opera://settings/clearBrowserData and just adjust the time range without actually deleting anything, Opera is automatically clearing the things you have checked?

Or, are you clicking the delete button and if so, what do you have checked? Also, are you on the "advanced" tab or the "Basic" tab when you do it?

Also, what do you have the main cookie setting set to at the URL opera://settings/cookies? Note that if you're blocking cookies by default and then allowing them for certain sites, clearing "Site settings" in the opera://settings/clearBrowserData dialog will remove the cookie settings for sites and you won't be able to log in.

To rule out cookie file corruption, you could goto the URL opera://settings/clearBrowserData and clear just "Cookies and other site data" for all time. Then, goto the URL opera://about, take note of the "profile" path, close Opera and delete the "Cookies" file in the "Network" folder in the profile folder.

I would also make sure the time, date, time zone and daylight savings (if applicable) settings are correct on your computer.

If you're using Opera Sync, I'd stop using it for a while to test if the issue goes away. Same with My Flow.

If you have to, you could start all over with fresh data and settings etc. by renaming/deleting your user data folder.

While you're on a site and logged in, you can hit ctrl + shift + i to open the developer tools. Then, you can switch to the "Application" tab and select the site in question under "Cookies" in the left-hand pane. Then, in the right-hand pane, you can look at the expire date of each of those cookies (especially the one that looks like a session cookie that keeps you logged in) to make sure you're not just getting logged out when the cookie expires.

@burnout426 1) opera://settings/clearBrowserData. In Basic tab: All checks are unmarked except of "Cached images and files", selected Time period: "All time". Advanced tab: All checks unmarked, time period: "All time".
2) opera://settings/cookies. "Block third-party cookies in private mode" is selected. No other specific settings were not changed/setuped there.
3) I don`t press Delete button, simply chose "Time period" and closed by pressing "Cancel".
4) Date, time, etc are correct, opera sync is not used.

As for cookies that expire, I`m not sure, I have tried to view them on the example of google, but there are a lot of them, I failed figuring out which one is session cookie. Some of them indeed have expiration date of short period (e.g 26.12.2023 ; 01.01.2024), while some till 2025.

I will wait some time, last time i was logged out from all sites on 10.12.2023, probably some logout date will be same as in cookies expiration date. But what disproves this theory is that it logs out from not just one, but all sites.

(When on opera://settings/clearBrowserData Time period was selected "4 weeks", I got logged out approximately once a month, I never pressed "Delete" button.)
