Of course you must be logged in to see your account details! If your browsers have cookies enabled you can remain logged in on multiple machines. If your cookies are cleaned up then that logs you out on that machine, but you stay logged in on any other machine which retains its cookies. ID: 961897 ·

If you are deleting cookies every time you shut down then the machine has no way of remembering where you went & how to log in - that's what cookies do! ID: 961926 ·

That something seems to usually happen after a project has had a problem. Suspect the restore on their side breaks the cookie on your side. ID: 961972 ·
