Power BI Desktop asking for login on every start up (new)

Hi all, 

 

I've been following this (old) thread, but it is marked as resolved even though a few of us are still having issues 

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Power-BI-Desktop-asking-for-login-on-every-start-up/td-p/25...

 

To reiterate the problem, I'm prompted to sign in every single time I open power bi desktop. When I log into the service no issues at all, but desktop never remembers my details. (small but frustrating problem!) 

 

Previous threads talk about upgrading the PBI version, but I'm on  March 2018 version currently. 

Other colleagues in my team do not have this issue. 

 

Thanks for your help.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

I think this issue may related to operations permission, it seems like power bi not have permission to record your sign in info to local device.

 

I guess it more related to specific device. Have you test on other devices or other account? 

In addition, device restore will also cause the issue, please double check if any restore policy enabled.

 

BTW, I haven't faced same issues when I test on recently versions.
