Why is my sync account being logged out automatically every day?
Being automatically logged out in Edge with my private sync / Microsoft account happens on the up-to-date version of Windows 11 Pro with the normal current version of Edge. I have only a single Edge profile which is private and neither Windows nor Edge is managed by a corporation. However, I edited some policies. So, it may appear to Windows or Edge that there is corporate management. "Passwordless account" and "Two-step verification" are both switched off.
I do have another corporate account to access M365 which is MFA protected (Microsoft authenticator). Also there I am automatically been logged out on a daily basis.
Can I change the behaviour?

I’ve been having the same issue ever since the last update. Microsoft has managed to infect its browser with that nonsense of automatically logging users out of their accounts on its terrible websites. They have a habit of messing with things that work just fine.
I miss the days when both browsers and websites in general would log users out of their accounts on a whim, when they’d push out shallow designs like corporate promotional sites, and when it was easier to reach customers.
I forgot to mention: "Automatic sign in on Edge" and "Allow single sign-on for work or school sites using this profile" are both switched on.
