Why do I keep getting asked to log into my account repeatedly?

Hi Leita Bennett,

Thanks for posting your situation on Microsoft Q&A Forum.

I am sorry for the circumstance you have met with the sign-in loop on OneDrive in you shared computer.

Regarding this case, here are some quick checks for most common issues you might consider checking it out:

1. Turn off “clear cookies on close.”
2. Allow cookies (or add Yahoo exceptions).
3. Disable ad‑block/tracking extensions for Yahoo. Temporarily turn off:
   • Ad blockers, anti‑tracking/privacy extensions
   • Password managers’ “auto‑logout” features
   • Antivirus/endpoint extensions doing HTTPS inspection
   • Retest in a private window with all extensions disabled. If it works there, re‑enable extensions one by one.
4. Fix system time. Windows: Settings → Time & language → Date & time → enable Set time automatically and Set time zone automatically.
5. Use a separate browser profile on the shared PC. Edge/Chrome: Profile menu (top‑right avatar) → Add → create a dedicated profile for your Windows account. Pin that profile to the taskbar for easy access.

Kindly let me know if above checklist can help you solve the problem. In case the issue still persists, please get back to me on the comment, then we will need to double-check the case together to help you solve it.

Warm regards,
