Google Chrome resets all log ins frequently and I can't recognize the cause

This started few months ago when I would enter Google Chrome, search for sites such as reddit, youtube, facebook, gmail etc. and would find out I've been logged off from all these sites. It woudln't delete saved passwords or browser settings, bookmarks etc. It would only sign me out of everything.

I used to be few days a week, but last day it was almost once every hour. I had some suspects like installing new software or updating existing software, but it never seemed connected. Like if I updated steam or riot games, or some other video game launcher, even discord, I'd check browser if it has retended my log ins, it would usually be fine. It is very unpredictable.

I tried scanning down my pc with multiple antivirus apps, reseted and reinstalled chrome, nothing. It still happens. I'm planning to reset entire windows 10.

What info would you like me to provide for you to get a better grasp of what's going on?

You probably have Chrome setup to Clear Cookies and Site Data on Exit. Disable this Feature

I've already made a post about this issue, but I'm now very confident on what's causing the reset of all pages in Google Chrome: app or system updates.

I've just updated BitTorrent and it happened before my eyes. Gmail, reddit, facebook, twitch, techsupport, all pages got logged off. I already tried almost all available methods of resolving this issue:
  • Resseting Chrome settings
  • Adjusting Chrome settings
  • Reinstalling Chrome
  • Clearing cache
  • Scanning down PC with two anti malware apps
  • Updated W10
  • Asked on techsupport forums for help

Nothing fixed the issue.

Details:
the password history is saved, and I get promped with quick login in all pages including gmail. The irritating part is I have to do it all over again every time. It seems like there's some loop code that resets all logins with any system or app update, was it a game, application or a driver.

P2P
We believe that the primary purpose of Peer-to-peer (P2P) programs is to illegally download and use copyrighted material of whatever description. We further understand that while there may be legitimate uses for certain P2P applications, we are not able to assess a user's intent when he/she asks for help. For that reason we do not offer support for P2P software and we will normally not assist any user in this regard. This includes, but is not limited to, torrents, illegal software, uTorrent, BitTorrent, Vuze, and others.

In certain cases, we may offer limited support for temporary use of bulk downloading applications (e.g. Linux Distros) for clearly legitimate purposes. Once the temporary need is satisfied, we will recommend that the torrent downloader be uninstalled for security reasons. We reserve the right to not offer support beyond this limited instance.


It is quite possible that Google is enforcing antipiracy rules in their OS
