after upgrade to Edge Stable 86.0.622.38 now when I close Edge and then open a website where I was previouly logged in, now I have to login again, also site settings are not preserved for example in YouTube.
reverting back to Edge Stable 85.0.564.70 fix the issue.

UPDATE: seems the only way to fix this bug temporarily is Changing "Hosted App Data" from "clearing each time" to "not clearing each time", according to Rich Alan in Microsoft Answers forums.
UPDATE 2: Edge Stable 86.0.622.56 has been released and seems the bug is fixed now.
