@kane12 Don't need to reinstall, just remove the current Cookies file and check if it helps.

These past few days opera started logging me off of eveyrthing, from youtube and google websites to any socials im logged into. I saw that this problem had been fixed on Mac, but i couldnt find a way to fix it on Windows 11.

@noxx772 First basic thing to do is to check your cookies settings to see if the option to remove them on exit is not enabled by chance and if all are being accepted.

@leocg After seeing the other posts I went to check the cookie settings, and they were set to keep the cookies even after closing opera, so i dont know what is happening, and for some reason today I didnt get logged off anything like it was happening in the past few days

@noxx772 Your Cookies file may be corrupted, delete it and see if helps.

@noxx772 If you type %appdata% there, do you see an Opera Software folder listed?

I see that i keep logging out ( of the browser session; the one you see on the top right after logging in to opera GX). I couldn't find a way to increase the session time out. The issue here is that the sync gets stopped and it requires me to remember and re login to Opera GX constantly.

can we keep me logged in like in Chrome/ Firefox instead of logging me out like this?

Hey!

I recently switched browsers from Brave to OperaGX on my Macbook Pro. I'm loving the customization and the interface of GX. It took some searching and deleting to get my passwords and bookmarks into OperaGX but it's working well for me. However, I'm noticing that my discord, google and spotify accounts keep logging me off whenever I quit Opera GX or even when I close the tabs for a moment. I am constantly signing in and it's getting annoying.

I have tried to allow third party cookies on the Settings, including Youtube, Discord, Google and Reddit in the list of third-party cookies, but it's not working. I've seen in some forums to switch off "Throw Away Cookies on Exit" but I do not see that in Opera GX. Does anyone have any solutions? Thanks!

@keotheraptor You can use "Allowed to use third-party cookies" under the same section. I'm having the same problem. Just add each URL that you need i.e. "https://www.youtube.com".

I am not sure what to do. I get singed out of everything whenever I close Opera GX; all the forums say there is a setting called "Clear cookies on exit" but I can't seem to find it. This issue only occurs when I am signed in on my Opera accoutn. If I set the browser to default settings, this issue doesn't occur.
