Sync pauses and cookies seemingly aren't saved after every time browser closes? 0 Recommended Answers 23 Replies 80 Upvotes
I'm dealing with a problem where each time I close chrome, it pauses sync and doesn't seem to use stored cookies (meaning it logs me out of all websites, regardless of if the password is stored in sync or not).
This issue only began after I moved to a new computer (from windows 7 to windows 10) and used restore from an external hard drive to move over all my files.
I have tried:
- Under site settings "Allow sites to save and read cookie data (recommended)" is checked
- Also in site settings "Clear cookies and site data when you quit Chrome" is unchecked
- Uninstalling/reinstalling, including deleting all local data, emptying recycling bin and restarting before reinstalling
- Downloading Chrome Beta, which results in the same error
- Deleting all chrome-related program files from my external hard drive restore file before uninstalling/reinstalling
This issue may seem small but has been immensely frustrating. Any help would be appreciated!!
Thank you!

I'm having the exact same problem. I don't even know why it started. I think I took some Windows Updates and boom, every time I close the Chrome window I Sync is paused and I need to log back in. I've tried all the fixes you mentioned with no avail. And It requires me to log into my Gmail app or send me a txt to authenticate every time I log in as well. Most annoying thing ever. Pleeeeeease fix this.

I have two windows 10 2004 machines. They behave the same way. I have to log in again to enable sync.
One of the Windows machines has been running "2004" a few month (early access) and I thought the machine had problems. BUT now when I updated the other windows machine to "2004" I get the same problem.
Interestingly I have tried using Microsoft Edge (chromium) which I do not have to login in every time.
So, something has changed with Microsoft Windows 10 2004. I think it is a Microsoft problem ... something is cleared between reboots ... somebody need to investigate this ... I like Chrome better than Edge!
Pls help,
Jonas

Since updating to 2004 my sync is paused most times I load Chrome (but strangely, not all). Also maybe related, Mail (the one that comes with windows) also has account issues all the time. This is definitely a change Microsoft has made, sadly it's over 10 days since I "upgraded" so I can't go back to a good version of Windows.

- Please verify this is only affecting Windows 10 2004? If you don't know, press Win+R and type "winver", and report the version number.
- If you look in Event Viewer, under Windows Logs > Applications and Services > Microsoft > Windows > Crypto-DPAPI > Operational, do you see any errors?
- If the answer is yes, try this:
- Close all Chrome Windows
- Lock (Press Win+L) your Workstation
- Unlock, then start Chrome, does it work then?
I think locking flushes the dpapisrv master key cache, so if that workaround works that narrows down the problem.

Me dedico a soporte de Software.
Esto mismo me pasa en muy pocas pc (2 de un total de 140)
No encontramos solución, todos tenemos (pro protocolo) los mismos software instalado y solo en dos me ocurre esto. Todas están actualizadas a la versión 2020 mayo y con todas las actualizaciones posteriores (al dÃa).
desinstalar e instalar nuevo Chrome y nada .... .todo sigue igual.
Voy a seguir investigando.
Si encuentro alguna solución se los contaré
