I've had this problem for a while now. I'll be browsing normally, open a few tabs, the usual stuff. If I think I'm gonna be away from my pc for a while, I turn off my monitor (a LG C1 tv). I will come back and, regardless whether its chrome or firefox, my browsers will be closed. This doesnt happen every time, just every once and while. Is there any browser settings I can turn off/on to make sure this doesn't happen anymore?

Are you certain no one is messing with your PC while you're away from it?

 

Sounds like some kind of bug/crash in that case. Anything suspicious in the event log?

I am certain.

 

I'll have to check it next time it happens, I'd usually just open my browsers again and go back to what I was doing

The only other thing I can think of would be some kind of forced auto-update. But I'm my experience Chrome and Firefox notify you about updates and don't just update on their own while open.
