LastPass Keeps Logging Me Out

Workaround available Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Vivaldi Updated October 21, 2026

Quick answer

The extension logs out when the browser clears cookies on exit, when 'Share login state between browsers' misbehaves, or when auto-logout timers are on. Fix those three settings first.

Most likely fix: Stop the browser clearing cookies on exit.

Symptoms

You have to enter the master password every few minutes or every time you open the browser, in Chrome, Edge or Firefox, even though auto-logout seems disabled.

Why it happens

  • Browser set to clear cookies and site data on exit
  • 'Share login state between browsers' enabled
  • 'Log out when all browsers are closed' or inactivity timeout enabled
  • Privacy extensions or ad blockers interfering
  • Business 'log out on browser close' policy bug (fixed in extension 4.152.1)

How to fix it

Try these in order — the most common fix is first.

  1. 1. Stop the browser clearing cookies on exit

    1. Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Third-party cookies / Site data
    2. Turn off 'Clear cookies and site data when you close all windows'
    3. Or add lastpass.com as a site that can always use cookies

  2. 2. Disable shared login state

    1. Open LastPass Extension preferences > Advanced
    2. Turn off 'Share login state between browsers'
    3. Save and restart the browser

  3. 3. Relax LastPass auto-logout

    1. Open Extension preferences > General > Security
    2. Turn off 'Log out when all browsers are closed'
    3. Turn off or lengthen 'Log out after this many minutes of inactivity'

  4. 4. Test without other extensions

    1. Disable ad blockers and privacy extensions
    2. Set LastPass site access to 'On all sites' in the browser's extension details
    3. Re-enable extensions one by one to find the conflict

  5. 5. Update or repair the extension

    1. Update to the latest extension version (business users: 4.152.1 or later)
    2. If the browser shows 'This extension may be corrupted', click Repair
