I've been logged out of my websites every time I close the browser
I have all my settings set where it doesn't do that. I have everything unchecked with regards to deleting history and logins and have the delete cookies to unchecked to. My settings have been the same for years and haven't changed.

Cache and Form And Search History leaving the others off.The only thing I do different from that is have browsing and download history checked in the settings box. Is that causing the problem?
Actually, yes. Firefox recently enabled a new form of protection against first-party tracking cookies. They get purged if you haven't visited the site for 30-45 days. Firefox computes the last visit date from -- you guessed it -- your history.
Assuming you want to keep clearing history, you probably need to turn off this new feature for now (until they come up with another approach):
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.
(2) In the search box in the page, type or paste purge and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the privacy.purge_trackers.enabled preference to switch the value from true to false
Please let us know whether that makes any difference for you.

Those should not remove your 'logged-in' cookie.
Profile data can be removed or not recorded in several ways;
- 1) Running Firefox in Private Mode (nothing is recorded)
- 2) Privacy settings; (In the address bar,type about:preferences#privacy<enter>)
- 3) Many disk cleaners and anti-virus type programs can remove data from browsers
Open their settings and have them leave the browsers alone. - 4) Mal-ware.
