Edge keeps logging me out of Google services after about an hour (despite cookie exceptions)
I’m facing a really frustrating issue with Microsoft Edge. The browser keeps logging me out of all Google services (Gmail, Google Drive, etc.) roughly every hour.
Here is what I’ve already configured and tried to fix it:
- Under "Choose what to clear every time you close the browser", everything is toggled OFF.
- Under "Cookies and site data", I have explicitly added Google domains (like https://google.com and [*.]google.com) to the "Allow" list so they are never deleted.
- I verified that "Allow sites to save and read cookie data" is turned ON.
Despite these settings, the session expires after about an hour and I have to log in all over again.
Has anyone else experienced this recently? Is this a known bug, or is there another hidden setting (like flag tweaks) that I need to change to stop Edge from dropping my Google sessions?
