How do I stay signed in?

I sign into Office 365 on my browser (on my Mac). I used to be able to choose to stay signed in, but something happened and now I get automatically signed out every night.

And yes, one time I chose the "Don't show this message any more" option, but I did NOT turn off the option to stay signed in.... only the message that gave me the option. Now I cannot find any way/button to "Stay Signed In" any more. How do I change this back? I'm tired of signing back in every morning.

    I have gone all through my chrome settings, even typing in "Privacy and Security", yet there is not location for that service.  I have tried every thing and cannot find the privacy and security anywhere.  Thanks anyway.  I'll just do the prompts or switch to gmail.

    I understand your frustration.

    But since i made these changes in my Chrome browser this has stop in asking those annoying question..

    Navigate your way into chrome settings.

    Settings > Click on "Privacy and Security" > Click on "Site Settings" > Scroll your way down to "Cookies and Site Data" > and make sure that "Clear Cookies and Site data when you quit Chrome" is turned off.

    I hope this can help.

    Absolutely annoying! I have asked this question many times. What's the point of checking yes if they are not going to let me stay on! I do not have this issue with my tablet of cell phone, just the PC>

    Now there are THREE STEPS TO SIGN INTO HOTMAIL instead of just the two.  It use to be all you had to do was type in "hotmail.com" and you would be directed to hotmail sign in where you clicked on "sign in" and put in your hotmail email address and then your password (two steps).  Now an annoying page pops up asking if you want to stay signed in (It's been an option for some time, obviously if I had wanted to stay signed in I would have by now).  On this page it also give the check box "Don't show this again".  For the past three weeks I have checked that box EVERY SINGLE TIME and it keeps showing it.  It doesn't matter whether or not I check option "No" or "Yes" for staying signed in, it ALWAYS SHOWS THE OPTION and the "Don't show this again".  IT HAS BECOME REALLY ANNOYING AND FRUSTRATING TO HAVE TO CONTINUE CHECKING BOXES THAT TELL YOU IF YOU CHECK IT YOU WON'T BE ASKED AGAIN AND THEN ARE ASKED EVERY SINGLE TIME.  All hotmail users want to do is sign in and go to their emails, not jump through more hoops just to get to their page.
