Windows 10: Need help getting rid of Google sign in popup. But I have no Google account.

CharlesKunz · Jan 2, 2023

For some months now, I have been getting a Google Account signin popup message most of the time with my searches and web pages using DuckDuckGo. I do not have a Google Account; as far as I recall I have never had a Google Account; I rarely use Google; or even it's YouTube. DuckDuckGo is my default search engine on both my Firefox and MS Edge browsers. I have even removed the Google option in both browsers. The popup only seems to occur when I do a search using DuckDuckGo or access web pages using the FF browserI would appreciate any help getting rid of this Google signin popup.Thank you, best

:)

Sign in with Google prompt

I'm using Firefox ver. 108.0.1. running under Win 10 ver 22H2. On several websites I get the infamous popup "Use your Google account to sign in".

Going into my google account, I tried the recommended: security> signing into other sites> turn off google account sign-in prompts. This did not help. I used other browsers like Chrome and IE and do NOT get the Google sign in prompt on these browsers. Only Firefox.

I finally just closed out and completely deleted my Google account, and I'm still getting the prompt in Firefox.

Any idea on how to get rid of this annoyance?

"Use Google Account" prompt to sign in

Hi, a Google search suggests this:

How to Turn Off the “Sign in with Google” Prompt on Websites

It may help.

Hi, I did google before posting and there are many such "solutions", that option is disabled in my google accounts, and as I said it's not relevant since I'm not signed in in any of my google accounts when this happens

A lot of sites track you and ask you to sign in with Google, Facebook or other some you can ignore others won't let you see content if you don't sign in a lot newspapers do this then spam you

Ok, so then as I suspected it's non related to any setting in my local PC, but site specific and pushed by the specific site. Still it's bothersome and invasive, there should be something like a popup or adblocker that should disable it

Google strengthening 2-Step Verification for Google account

What’s changing

Starting on July 7, 2020, we will make phone verification prompts the primary 2-Step Verification (2SV) method for all eligible users, unless they are already using security keys as their 2SV method of choice. This means that if you sign in to your Google account and are also signed in on a smartphone, you will be asked to follow phone prompts to verify the login attempt. This will help increase account security while making it easier to sign in.

This won’t apply if you use a security key to protect your account. You’ll also still be able to use other methods (such as a code received by text) by selecting a different method during the phone prompt verification steps.

Phone prompts verify your sign-in attempt via your smartphone

Who’s impacted

End users

Why it’s important

Phone prompts, also known as “on-device prompts,” are more secure than text or voice codes as a form of 2-Step Verification. They’re also easier to use, as they avoid requiring users to manually enter a code received on another device. By making prompts the primary method for more users, we hope to help them take advantage of the additional security without having to manually change settings—though they can still use other methods of 2-Step Verification if they prefer.

Additional details

How phone prompts work

After you enter your password to sign in to your Google Account, Google sends a "Trying to sign in?" prompt to every eligible mobile device where you’re signed in. This prompt tells you when and where your password was entered, and then asks you to confirm or block the sign-in attempt by simply tapping your mobile device. You can still select a different verification method during sign-in if one is available on your account. You’ll also stop receiving prompts on a phone if you sign out of that phone. Learn more about phone prompts.

Users with security keys are excluded from this change

Users will not have prompts as their primary 2SV method in two situations:

If an organization enforces the “Only security key” 2-Step Verification option for a user, there will be no change and the user will continue to be required to use security keys.

If a user currently has, or at any point in the future adds, a security key on their account, the security key verification will be presented as the primary method.

Additionally, if a user doesn’t have 2-Step Verification turned on, this will not apply.

Getting started

Admins: This feature will be ON by default. Admins can only disable the feature by requiring the use of security keys. Visit the Help Center to learn more about protecting your business with 2-Step Verification.

End users: This feature will be ON by default and can be disabled by the user. Visit the Help Center to learn more about signing in with 2-Step Verification.

Rollout pace

Rapid and Scheduled Release domains: Gradual rollout (up to 15 days for feature visibility) starting on July 7, 2020

Availability

Available to all G Suite customers and users with personal accounts.
