Well, you have problem that Google Chrome clears the cookies when you exit the browser. No worries, you can stop that.

Instructions

In Chrome version 108.0.53*

  1. Click ‘Settings‘ from the three dots on the top right corner of the browser
  2. Click ‘Privacy and security‘ from the left sidebar.
  3. Click ‘Cookies and other site data‘ under ‘Privacy and security
  4. Disable ‘Clear cookies and site data when you close all windows

Stop chrome from clearing cookies

In older version of Chrome (well, the one released in 2017)

  1. Click Options
  2. Click “Under the Hood”
  3. Click the “Content settings” button under the “Privacy”
  4. Disable the option ” Clear cookies and other site and plug-in data when I close my browser”.
  5. That’s it. Chrome will never delete your cookies after you close your browser.
Enable or disable cookies clear automatically in chrome
