Issue

Every time I open up a Word or Excel document from FYI using Office desktop, I have to manually log in each time. 

Cause

The local computer has multiple Windows login credentials configured and is unable to keep a single user signed in permanently.

Solution

You will need to remove all of the Windows credentials so that you will be prompted to remember the user account (preventing the sign-in window each time).

Refer to the Microsoft help article below for instructions on how to remove the windows credentials:
