The Windows 10 May 2020 Update doesn’t surprise anybody with the issues it’s causing for some users. It may not be a massive OS upgrade, but it’s certainly bigger than the regularcumulative updatesthat cause all manner of Windows 10 PC problems.
Already,Microsofthas acknowledged more than a dozenbugsaffecting Windows 10 version 2004. Some originate in the OS itself, while others stem from installing one or more of the most recentPatch Tuesdayupdates.
The latest such bug is causing login problems for some Chrome and Edge users.

One usersharedto the Windows 10 Subreddit how they’re forced to re-authenticate into websites after each PC boot. They claim that this problem started after installing Windows 10 v2004.
In addition, thebrowsersare unable to remember the user’sOneDriveand Google login details. So, the user has to supply their user name and password each time they boot their PC.
Anyone else having this issue? After the 2004 updates, I need to log-in after each boot and reauthenticate myself. It’s also doing flakey thing with my Chrome and Edge log-ins as well into Goggle. Especially Chrome, it doesn’t remember any of my log ins after an hour or so, or after reboots. It sometimes happens with Edge as well.
This is not the first time users are reportingbrowserissues after installing the May 2020 update.
