That was fixed on August. This is something new. I reported it already so if they figure it out we will know what is happening.

Isn't it the same previous mentioned prob i.e ssl error?

No. That was specific to sites using an EV certificate and you had the site whitelisted.

Hey should i use Adguard or is ublock origen still the best

Guess the same apply for HTTPS too i.e many HTTPS sites are under exclusion/whitelisted?

The bug said EV certificate only. It was only EV because to check if the cert it was EV site connection had to be established and if it was ev they dropped the connection.
Normal https sites don't have to check anything so it allows or connects depending no rules without problems.
That is the case for everything now that the bug is fixed.

Now further confusion here...

I browsed for app 20 mins MalwareTips website with VPN & no probs. But when I disconnected VPN, I logged in normally into MalwareTips & immediately got logged out 2 times.

keep uBo. I don't see any advantage of using Adguard over uBo

uBo > adguard:
- easily customize filters
- can add many filters and the efficacy is probably the same. ublock also has adguard malware fiters
- doesn't scan all your traffic
- lighter in overall, doesn't slow down PC startup
- you can use hosts file to block ads in other apps
- adguard needs HTTPS certificate to work -> must disable HTTPS scanning in your AVs otherwise adguard won't work -> potential decrease your security when you get Phishings or malwares from HTTPS
- free | while adguard is $$$
- adguard may track your info by default settings -> can disable it

adguard > uBo:
- works with all applications
- stealth mode for all applications -> chrome also has this extension
- other sophisticated modules: safe search, password protection, WFP driver,... but I don't find them really superior or worth extra bucks
- ... I don't know

Ok, is it strange or the right thing?

In my MT account preferences, Time Zone was set to another country And I set it to my country And prob seems to be solved.

Does a website Time Zone can give such prob?

Highly doubt that the website checks your ip and logs you out when that changes but @Jack can confirm.
I think the vpn on and off might be luck and has nothing to do with the issue and it's adguard https and chrome. Can you check if you have the same issue with Firefox or something not chrome based?

@Yash Khan Can't be time because i switch vpn location often(means time changes) and i don't get logged out ever.

Oh man, I read your post & clicked on post reply & was logged out 2 times.

No probs on IE, Firefox Portable & MS Edge.

Could the prob be due to Chrome is 64 Bits here?

Then it must be adguard https filtering in recent chrome versions. I believe a recent change messed up something. I use for now the extension to handle the http and disabled it from adguard desktop.
That seems to have solved my issues maybe it will do the same for you.

Yes, disabling HTTPS or exiting Adguard solves the issue.

But the question is why the prob not on other HTTPS websites?
Prob on MalwareTips & mydigitallife forum.
Prob not on freedownloadmanager forum, download.hr & Gmail.

Don't exactly know but my issues are on only a few https sites(not MalwareTips). Don't know how and why but assuming developers can reproduce or care to get in touch with people with the issue to look at the problem i am sure they will fix it.

Can you install 32 Bits Chrome on 64 Bits Windows Or Google doesn't allow it now?

If 32 Bits can be installed on 64 Bits system then I may give a try to 32 Bits Chrome & see...

They must allow it but never tried. I don't want to change anything until adguard team gets in touch with me because they might want to check the issue as it is .

On browsers, I enable options like "clear browsing history on exit".
1 - Chrome has an option "keep local data until you quit your browser" - I have enabled this option.
2 - And I always uncheck "Remember Me" for username/password on websites.

So, for now I have kept above mentioned Chrome option enabled.
And logged into MalwareTips with "Remember Me" option for username/password enabled/checked...And it seems to work i.e for now not facing log out prob.
Will see how it goes & update here......

Ok, if I logged into malwaretip with option "stay signed in" checked, I am not having log out prob - tested 2 times logging in with "stay signed in" checked & trying opening 25 links/threads here And no log out prob.

Logged into MalwareTips with "stay signed in" unchecked, having log out prob - tested 2 times logging in with "stay signed in" unchecked & both the times on 4-5 links/threads opening got logged out.

1 - Chrome has an option "keep local data until you quit your browser" - I have enabled this option.

Ok, tried disabling the above mentioned option And enabling the recommended option "Allow local data to be set" But still frequent log out prob.

The numerous options I tried, Only 1 option works & doesn't give me log out prob And that is "stay signed in" i.e if I check "stay signed in" on MalwareTips, no frequent log out prob.

Is it possible that my MT account has some prob?

Ok, kinda confirmed.

For now I am having frequent log out prob with 2 HTTPS websites, MalwareTips & mydigitallife forum And on both websites if I check remember me/stay signed in then no log out prob.

So dont know if my account on both forums have probs or dont know whats the prob?

 

[Deleted member 2913]

Ok, don't know what the prob was? But now things automatically seems fine.
I will see how it goes & update here...
