    I have an Acre computer running Windows 7. Suddenly I note that all of my internet sites are requiring that I log in each time I open the computer. This happens even though I have checked the various boxes to keep the site open on a continuous basis. I am not sure if I mistakenly changed some setting.

    Log in info is stored in cookies on your computer. Malware apps and apps like CCleaner have options to remove cookies.

    I do not want to remove log in information but wish to keep the site log in so I do not have to log in every day

    Then you need to alter your settings and/or remove the software that is deleting the cookies on your computer.
