After awhile Windows 8 keeps logging me out. then I have to click then re-enter my password every time.

How can I disable this?

I only have one user account and will not have any others.

    Oh you'll get far by the ways you chose to interact with people and come here and do nothing but crying and bashing Windows 8. If you are so clever go and find the answer yourself and spare us all your bitchy little comments.

    ...YouTube to watch a video on how to restart Windows 8, something's wrong with the design..

     

    Like really?! One would think something is wrong with you instead. Searching YouTube on how to restart Windows, omg! Was someone forcing you to upgrade to Windows 8? You know how easy is to downgrade to Windows 7? Or you have to watch another YouTube video on how to do that too?

    I do not like Windows 8 and can name plenty of reasons why. Unless you can help me with the constant log in to every website problem you can save the life counseling comments for someone who asked for it.

     

    I am trying to find a solution to this particular one of many issues I am experiencing..........

    I was ready to help you, but when I saw your respond to others in this forum I'm having second thoughts. Guy who responded to you said absolutely nothing wrong nor insulting, and you're coming back with lightning bolts for no reason at all.

    BTW, constant logins for every website is totally not related to Windows 8 and it's not OS level at all. It is your browser, cookie cache permissions that are not keeping your login information saved. It could also be some third party anti-virus/anti-spyware or even software firewall you're using.
