Signed out of everything on reboot

Hello, 

This does not work for everyone, especially myself. I don't have HP anything on my computer so task scheduler doesn't show anything. They need to fix this and the fact that this very terrible bug has been around over 6 months now is disgusting.

Yes I knew not everyone would be able to use this, but it helped me and some others... sorry for not being able to provide a better solution for your case.. have you tried the powershell (admin) check? You might get a different answer even though you dont have any HP anything...

Regards,

FA

Hello, 

This does not work for everyone, especially myself. I don't have HP anything on my computer so task scheduler doesn't show anything. They need to fix this and the fact that this very terrible bug has been around over 6 months now is disgusting.

I have an issue that every time I reboot windows 10 pro, I am signed out of many of my accounts which require me to sign in again.  My google account on chrome, adobe, zoom and Microsoft all require signing in before I can use.  This is particularly a problem with the Adobe products since they are a subscription based I can only use them off-line if I am signed in.  So far, my desktop versions of WhatsApp and Signal do not sign me out.  Is this a setting or a bug?

I am fully updated to the May 2020 update Version 2004

Hi, that error is a bug, I had the same problem for months... I've tried everything from different forums, clear cookies, cache, reboot, blah blah blah... nothing worked.

I've also tried a solution posted by Sumit - Insider MVP... and this is the ONLY thing that worked for me so far...

I've been trying this solution for two days and none of my accounts have signed out. (I used to get signed out 2-3 times DAILY just after closing my browser, not even waiting until restart or turning off my device).

**I recommend to log into your accounts before restarting to see if it stays signed in or not.

• Right-click Start>Windows Powershell(admin). Copy and paste below command:
• • Get-ScheduledTask | foreach { If ((xml).GetElementsByTagName("LogonType").'#text' -eq "S4U") { $_.TaskName } }

Note the app names you get as an output.

(in my case :

Disable the apps you noted by running the command in the task scheduler. (For example, HP Customer participation utility task, Carbonite, etc).

Explanation below:

• Search for Task Scheduler in the start menu. (Select Task Scheduler Library and to the right you'll see a list of tasks...)
• Locate the task in the Window(HP Customer participation in my case).
• Right-click the task and choose Disable.

Restart your PC and your logins would be retained.

**Background: These steps disables the tasks which use S4U, which is the reason for this unexpected logout behavior. In case you need those tasks, make them non-S4U, i.e. enable the "Do not Store password" in the task scheduler. Disabling the tasks would not affect anything on your computer, though.

I'll update if I have any other info.

If you're on version 2004 (which is the version we're all having issues with) then you already have that update installed since it's an older version. (V 1909 = version 1909). I manually download this update and windows informed me it's already installed. Only workaround I have currently for this is to leave chrome up, email, etc and never turn the computer off. (which is obviously not a very good or fun workaround.)

I did the upgrade it did not work, all Google, my banks, outlook, amazon does not know who I am. I have tried every fix suggested for months.

Microsoft may have to actually fix their code.

I think I may fire up my Linux machine it does not contain this nonsense, I can no longer work on this OS. I will temporally move to an Apple Machine

This was not necessary who ever you are are not very bright.
