This must surely be a technical issue - any hope of an answer on this from support?

I'm also having this problem. I use team viewer from two computers in my house to connect to another computer in my house which is hard to access directly. Interestingly, the timeout problem seems to only happen when connecting to 'computer #3' from 'computer #1'. 'Computer #2' doesn't seem to time out. The only difference is that 'computer #2' is logged on under a local windows account than #2 and #3. I checked the settings on the remote computer where the management sessions are timing out and it's set to not timeout. I'm not receiving any indications that TV thinks I'm using this for commercial purposes.
I've been using TV personal for several years and this problem just started a few weeks ago. It's a great product, but not currently useable for my purposes. Help?

BTW- Is this monitored by TeamViewer support? If not, I'm not sure what use this support forum is.

One more thing: TV creates a log file which is accessible from the 'extras' menu selection.
My log shows these entries indicating a timeout, but without any reason.

Hi, everyday teamviewer disconnets me because with this message "you are using it for commercial use". It's not true because I use it to connect to my mother phone and my father computer.
Why? What possible do?

Good afternoon,
I'm register user that for years has used TeamViewer in educational area (University) and also to help relatives and friends with their computer.
Recently (and once more) the teamviewer cut down the communication at 1 minute appx. I am not using it for commercial use.
Please, could be so kindly to allow me to continue using it?
Thank you,
Silverio

I found a solution on youtube that worked for me
I cannot post links - but search "How To Fix "Connection blocked after timeout" On Teamviewer (2020)"
The process took 20-30 minutes but so far I have been connected thru teamviewer for 45 minutes now with no issues (Before this I could only stay connected 10-20 seconds.
I don't know how long this will work, will I have to re-do it occasionally? Not sure.

TeamViewer has "sort of" acknowledged the issue. My suspicion is they've made a change that has caught plenty of abuse but also created "false positives".
Explanation and solution are here: https://community.teamviewer.com/English/discussion/94784/thank-you-for-playing-fair/p1
tl;dr - you need to fill out a form and send it to them to request your ID be "reset" - it takes a couple of days (sigh) but really isn't that hard. You give them your TeamViewer IDs and tell them how you're using T.V.

I needed to reactivate my team viewer ID because I am getting a timed out message. I followed the steps of going through the reset management. I am at the point where I have to download the PDF form, sign it, and scan it back in. However, when I click to download the PDF it gives me error message and the PDF cannot be downloaded. I switched browsers to see if it was a browser issue. Any support? Thanks!

Same here. Trying to help my 99 year old grandmother with her computer and it won't let me connect. How do I even talk to support here?

Same here. I have a free account that I use only to check on my home computer from my work computer.
I did not had any "commercial use" message, it justs ends the remote access after a few seconds. The message is "Your TeamViewer session has timed out and will be closed.". If I try again i get a different message, sayigin that connection was blocked after timeout and I had to wait until a certain time to try again. But I actually need to wait much longer, in order to connect again, and then just for a few seconds again.

@veryounique they are looking for the ID that is a NUMBER
Open teamviewer , on the left side click "remote control."
In the Box on the left is Your ID( below that is a password)
0 -
install the remote app onthe remote machine or local, or both?
0 -
i have all that information, the issue is i cannot add that ID or start another ticket so to speak because the system is recognizing ME being logged into teamviewer and already submitted( with my ID)

I had the problem of 1 minute timeout. Never saw a message about "commercial use" on either the host or remote but I filled out the PDF form and sent it in. In less than 24 hours TeamViewer reset the remote license and now it works again at least for a 5 minute test. Hopefully the fix stays.
After many years of using TeamViewer for personal use I still love it and I hope everyone is able to get their problem reset and continue to use the program!

I have started the PDF upload process to prove I am a non for profit user but the PDF button doesn't activate. I have the pdf on my desktop.

The YouTube video just suggests a complete uninstall and deleting the TV directory in Windows. It doesn't work for me. Guess I'll try resetting my account ID.... again... for the 3rd time in about 12 months.
If policing "private use" causes nothing but issues then just abandon it. Seriously, why even bother? It fails regularly, and just makes the whole platform look flawed. Who would want to spend money on something that unreliable?

Something seriously crippled the whole platform since March 23rd or 24th. Tons of people are having this problem. Seems to be no reason or fix for it. TV is basically useless now.

It seems as though this released coincides with a LOT of users getting "Session Timed Out" errors within 60 seconds of connecting to the host machine, and often much sooner than that. The support forums are flooded with people having this issue, all suddenly within the last few days, including myself. I used remote connect just fine on March 21st, but the last 3 days TV has been utterly useless. Is this just a coincidence? No one is answering any questions in the forums.
