Why Do I Keep Being Logged Off?

For the past few days, I keep getting logged off of my Firefox account each time I start up Firefox, a problem that has only began happening since going to a new computer. From what I could tell, the issue was not over from the computer, so I am wondering what the issue can be with Firefox.

Would like help at this as soon as possible. Thank you very much.

No this isn't something new when you close any browser your logged out of any accounts on that browser. This is for security and browser protections.

This did not occur before. Prior to this, I did not have to re-log into my account each time I turned on my computer and logged in. So how exactly do I deal with this then.

You two may have it set "[v] Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" in Settings > Privacy & Security

As a result you will be logged out on all sites/accounts.
