Edge keeps signing me out
Since a week or two, Microsoft Edge signs me out of my MS account. The top left account menu shows orange lettering, and when I click it, it reports that it can't sync because it needs to confirm...

florismkleijne HP Elitebook laptop, Windows 11 (language Norwegian), changed from 365 work account to personal 365 account earlier this year. Login to Windows with personal account. Had this problem with Microsoft Edge signing me out all the time.
Possible solution: Opened Settings, Accounts, Login options, deleted all Hello options (face recognition, finger print and PIN). Recreated these Hello options. I guess there was a connection to my earlier work account in these settings. After restart of laptop there is no problem with Edge signing me out (so far so good day at one). Will report back later this week.

Try:
Microsoft Edge - Settings - Profiles - Profile settings - Automatically sign in to Microsoft Edge
Microsoft Edge - Settings - Profiles - Profile settings - Automatically sign in to Microsoft Edge
- florismkleijneMar 06, 2024Brass ContributorThat simple? That would be great!
However, I'm waiting to see if this really resolves it. Mostly because I've never seen that option before, and I have definitely not turned it off recently, and still the issue popped up recently.
In any case, thanks for your response.- Dvorak-StepanMar 06, 2024Copper Contributor
I have the same problem as you. Microsoft Edge logs me out every time I restart my PC. Today when I was looking for the reason, I noticed this new setting. Actually there is a whole profiles section added. So I'm also waiting to see if this will work.
- florismkleijneMar 06, 2024Brass ContributorOh, it's new! That explains a lot. I did encounter the whole profiles thing before at work, didn't realize that it's now also in this instance of Edge.
