Yahoo Answers is shutting down on May 4th, 2021 (Eastern Time) and beginning April 20th, 2021 (Eastern Time) the Yahoo Answers website will be in read-only mode. There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.

Yahoo now makes me login every session?

Is this a "feature " that I can turn off? It used to give me a month or two before asking me for my password again. I am not interested in your extra security.

Update:

Additional: No no no no no. Fail.

I have seen the "knowledge base". None of those things apply. Your new update caused this and I am sick of it.

Pointing to urls with wrong answers is not an answer.

    Hi,

    How often you are asked to enter your password depends on a number of things, including your Yahoo Account settings, web browser or Internet Security software settings, and what part of your account you are trying to access. Parts of your account that access sensitive information will always require you to enter your password as a security measure.

    I recommend using the troubleshooting steps in these Yahoo Help articles:

    Why am I still asked to sign in after checking the "Keep Me Signed In" box?

    Error: "Your login session has expired"

    Hope that helps!
