[Duplicated]Opera signs me out of my accounts when I close it

Every time I close Opera GX it signs me out of my accounts like YouTube, Gmail, Amazon, and any account I was logged in on. This happens when I close the browser and when I restart my computer. My third party cookies are set to allowed and I've tried uninstalling Opera completely and it still happens. Any ideas on how to fix?

Check the main cookie settings at the URL
opera://settings/content/siteData
.Also, Opera GX on macOS or Windows?

Close Opera, hit Windows key + r to open the run dialog, type
%appdata%
and press enter so that Windows Explorer (File Explorer) opens up at "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming".Right-click on the "Opera Software" folder and click on "Properties".
On the "General" tab, click the "Read only" checkbox so that it's clear (all white), click "apply" and okay out. (If you go back in there again, don't worry if the checkbox isn't clear anymore.)
That should make sure nothing is set to read only for Opera's data files.
Then, repeat all that for
%localappdata%
.That will make sure your Opera cache files are not read only.
Then, for both of those "Opera Software" folders, go back in to their properties and switch to the "Security" tab. Make sure your user is listed in the "Group or usernames" field and when you select your user, make sure it has "Full control" checked for it where all permissions have a check in the "Allow" column. Don't worry about the "special permissions" entry there.

@mi-lk-y Make sure all the "customized behaviors" lists there are empty too. Same with the "Allow" list at the URL
opera://settings/cookies

If you have to, 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. -

If you have https://www.ccleaner.com/ instead, make sure it's not set to clear any of Opera's files.

Including starting with all new Opera data by renaming or deleting your profile and cache folders?

I used Revo Uninstaller to completely delete every Opera file on my computer then re-downloaded the installer off of chrome -

@mi-lk-y Hmm, I wonder if it missed deleting the profile and cache folders.
