How to prevent Windows 7 Remote Desktop time outs?
I can't seem to get some Windows 7 machines to prevent active but idle Remote Desktop connections from timing out.
I've changed all of the local group policy settings on my test machine under
Computer Configuration
Admin Templates
Windows Components
Remote Desktop Session Host
Session Time Limits
To disabled and I still get time outs of active but idle sessions.
Is there any where else I need to make changes?
Push Start > then type "Local Security Policy"
Inside the Local Secuirty Policy Snap in
Security settings > Security Options > Microsoft Network Server: Amount of idle time required before suspending session
Default is 15 minutes.
I need to modify your statement.. I had the same issue on a PC in my facility, and the path was: "Security settings > Local Policies > Security Options > Microsoft Network Server: Amount of idle time required before suspending session".
I had to hunt for a bit, using your reference. Though very good information, was not 100%. This should correct it.
