Google Chrome desktop browser keeps "pausing" sign in

Google Chrome desktop browser keeps "pausing" sign in. (see screenshot below)

Which in turn logs me out of websites that i use "sign in with google" on. In order to get it working again i click "paused" and re log in.

Is there a way to stop Google Chrome desktop browser "pausing" the sign in.

There have been reports that breaking the link between the Google Account in Chrome that is used to sync data and Google accounts on Internet sites may solve this problem:

In Chrome, enter chrome://flags/#account-consistency in the address bar
The flag "Identity consistency between browser and cookie jar" should be displayed at the top all in yellow
Click the drop-down button and set it to "Disabled"
Restart Chrome

If that doesn't help, disabling the sign-in and out link between Chrome and other Google services might also help:

Navigate in Chrome to chrome://flags
At the bottom of the page click Advanced
Under "Privacy and security", toggle "Allow Chrome sign-in" so it becomes grey
Restart Chrome

For more information see the ghacks article
Disable the sign-out link between Chrome, Gmail and other Google services.

neither of these suggestions solve the problem unfortunately. – Peter – 2019-09-25T14:23:58.607

If you have browser history set to clear everytime you completely close out of Chrome, that will cause it. You can change the behavior by going to Settings --> Advanced Settings --> Content Settings --> Cookies --> Uncheck "Keep local data until you quit browser"
