"Keep me signed in" Not Working in iCloud

When logging in to iCloud.com there is check box that allows the user to remain logged in for two weeks. This has worked fine in the past but stopped working a couple of days ago for me on various machine with various browsers. The persistent login works as long as the browner is running. However, after closing it, login is required the next time the site is accessed. I hadn't realized what a pain it is to have this feature removed if in fact that is what has happened. Is there perhaps a setting I am missing? Any wisdom welcome!

I had same problem. Your suggested 'trick' of removing all plugins / extensions worked fine. To note though I had ONLY one extension that was DIVX extension. Many thanks again as it was a real pain to have to login each time.

I had the same problem but solved it. My default browser was Internet Explorer. I am using Windows 10. I found that when I changed my default browser to Chrome the problem was resolved.

If you don't like that solution, try to sign into iCloud from Chrome and bookmark it. When you open it as a bookmark even though your default browser may be something other than Chrome it should allow you to keep signed-in after checking the box on the sign-in screen.
