Why do I have to keep logging in to say Yahoo or Zynga when I have unchecked the boxes to delete the active logins?

I was having issues with the flash player when I play on Zynga so I have been clearing my history before closing down the browser. The other day I decided to go to options and change how it would clear my browser history and my logins, This was getting to much of a pain so I changed it back to save the history without clearing it and I would just use the clear history in the history option. I still have to put my log in information back in when I close the browser and bring it back up. Also, it wouldn't auto complete items that I use all the time, like my email address, which it used to do before the update of 40.0. How can I fix my problem?

A detail like a website remembering you (log you in automatically) is stored in a cookie. Active Logins are used by server that use basic authentication, FTP server are an example of this and thus do not apply to your case where likely cookies are involved.
