Can the remote end session never end?

Joao_Luca

I'm in need of an account that never expires on my remote pc. I'll eventually have some large breaks between connections, and by large I mean months large, but whenever I'm back I need to connect to my remote pc even if there has been 2 months since the last connection. Is it possible with TeamViewer?

I tried once and after circa 25 days the remote end account have been automatically logged out and I couldn't access anymore until I went personally to the remote end machine to log TeamViewer again...

Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi @Joao_Luca,

thank you for your post! ✨

You are able to change the Timeout settings for connections to other computers to be set to "Off". Find out how to do that 👇🏻

However, to stop personally visiting the remote session to establish a connection. You are firstly able to tweak some Windows settings, so it won't shut down after a certain period, as well as stop it from going into Hibernate. You can find such settings inside your power options from Windows. 🔋

Secondly, you can activate unattended access on your account, so you won't need to manually type in a password each time and can easily connect to the device.

In the following article, you can find out how to set it up 👇🏻

If that's too insecure for you, activate Two-Factor Authentication if you didn't already 😉

Here's the article that covers the setup process 👉🏻 Activate Two-Factor Authentication 👈🏻

Let me know if you have further questions or if anything is not clear.

Best,
