Safari is logging out of all websites I visit, every time I relaunch

This has started happening in the last two weeks, and I'm not sure what the issue is. Every site I visit, especially regularly trafficked sites, I have to login again every time I relaunch Safari. Dropbox, Smartsheet, iCloud, etc. are all requiring a new login every time. Even if I click "keep me logged in" or "trust this computer". I've done all the required steps, but I still end up logged out.


Has anyone else had this issue as of late?

Open Safari with a Non-Private Window

Are you opening Safari with a new private window? If so then cookies are being removed, and you are always being required to enter all this once Safari is closed.


So, change it so it opens with A New Window.

Go Here: Safari Menu > Preferences > General > Safari opens with pane> Select: "A new window"

Are you running any anti-virus programs?


Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. Please post back on whether or not this worked. Also try the Safe Mode. Please post back on whether or not this worked.

Interestingly, I closed my existing window, opened a new one, and the problem no longer persists. Perhaps there was some archival data that kept kicking me out of everything.


Every time I opened Safari, that same series of windows would open, with that persistent problem, thus why I couldn't rid myself of it.


Thank you for the suggestions all, mischief managed!
