Site doesn’t remember me

Site doesn’t remember me even though I ask it to.  Have to login every time I visit.

Site used to remember me but one day it quit doing so.  Same thing happened to another site I visit so I suspect it is something that happened on my end of things.  What happened and how I can correct it, however, eludes me.

Any tips?

  1. Are you in incognito/private browsing mode?
  2. What OS and browser are you using?

Browser privacy settings or possibly browser add-ons might be responsible.

Are you in incognito/private browsing mode?Don’t know.  Where would I check for this?

What OS and browser are you using? I think the answers are Windows 10 and Microsoft edge.  I’m so weak in this area I’m not 100% sure.

I just lowered my privacy setting to basic from intermediate.  Didn’t help.  How would I know if I had a brouser add-on?

Mac user here. Take this with a grain of salt: Edge is a weird browser. It always annoys me when I have accidentally used it at work. Try Google Chrome.

Thanks for the help.

I’ll try all the tips and see if I can fix this.

Not having automatic login isn’t the end of the world.  Might help me improve my memory by memorizing my passwords.

you’re probably not incognito.  It says “incognito” somewhere at upper right in google chrome

the site usually remembers me, although recently it seems like it asks me to login sometimes
