    I am now getting kicked off either computer, one from home or work after only about a minute or so and I've been using the free service for about a year or so! What gives?

    This is happening to me too - haven't used TV in a while but now sessions get disconnected after about one minute. I've been a TV user for years.

    I have the same issue. After getting the message "appears to be used for commercial purposes", I went to the reset link, filled in the form, and activated the "generate PDF" button. Nothing happens. Seems like a grab to get legitimate free license holders to buy commercial license. There are plenty of other free options. I have been using teamviewer for a few years and like it but I have spent hours on this now. I think it is time to give up, unless someone out there has a solution. Thanks

    Hello Support. I have filled out your "reset my id" form 3x now, and i have gotten back 3x that my id can been fixed and the incorrect flag removed. Today was the 4x time i have tried and it is still broken. I am following all of your rules, i am not a business. I am connecting to me literally across from me in the same room, not commercial nor work related. Please do not spam me with the same response about from ester, i need a real answer hy after 3x you are still flagging my account. i tried calling but that tell me to goto your forum. please respond and fix this .

    Hello @nallum

    Thanks for your post.

    We have tested the reset page download button, and can confirm that there is no current issue with retrieving the PDF once the button is pressed. We have attempted on the latest version of Chrome, Firefox, and Edge to ensure no issues currently. All browsers successfully provided the PDF when prompted.

    We are also not getting other reports from users experiencing similar issues.

    Please clear your cache and cookies and try again. Please also be sure to check the browser's download history as well as the folder it designates for online downloads of files.

    Should the issue persist, please let us know the browser and the version of the browser used when attempting. Please also let us know exactly where in the process the issue occurs.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, I am having the same issue with the session being timed out after 1 minute even though I don't use TeamViewer for commercial purposes.

    Could you advise how I can get this resolved or where the 'reset ID' button is?

    I have tried going through the reset ID 3 times; however, I cannot get past step 1 (filling out the form). Clicking on generate a PDF does anyone have a suggestion as how to make this work?

    Again, I have NEVER EVER used TV for a commercial purpose and have no idea why I would get flagged.

    Hello @Searcher43

    Thanks for your post.

    If the form does not submit, it means there is an error that was entered on the form.

    Please ensure your information is correct, and the TeamViewer ID of the device that was flagged was entered correctly.

    I all of a sudden Keep getting timed out and then it says I'm blocked for a minute, but unable to get back on. This has never happened before.

    Hi, yesterday I received that message that my account was flagged as "commercial use". But I would like to explain that it is definitely not a commercial use. I have the free account on TeamViewer for many many years already and everyone that asks me about a tool like this, I always recommend TV.

    So, I'm trying to submit a request to reset that and explain that is not commercial use, but the form on the link https://www.teamviewer.com/en/reset-management/. Does TV accepts to revert the configuration? Or, at least, allow me to connect for few minutes, couple times, in order for me to find another way to have access to my personal machine?

    Thank you!!

    Hi Guys,

    I am using the free account as per the agreement of Teamviewer. But as of recent it keeps kicking me out. How can I get this resolved plz.

    Thanks

    I'm also getting this message now. I have a free account and only use for personal use (remoting into my personal computers to access my files easily). I have been trying to find a way to submit a ticket, but it just keeps redirecting me to here or the homepage.

    Same here, constantly getting re-blocked after waiting for the timer to go down.

    This is unacceptable. I have a free account because I just use TV to monitor a home file server and maybe update family computers once a month. At this rate i'm just going to find something else.

    Why does the free version now keep timing out? This just started when I upgraded to the newest version. I have used Teamviewer for years and never had this problem. I" am NOT a commercial user. I have been trying to connect to my Aunt who is 95 years old, is deaf and going blind. She lives on her computer and skype.

    How can I fix this?? Please!!!

    my email is [Removed per Community Guidelines]

    My free version keeps timing out also and now tells me something about a commercial licence. I use it to support my mom and daughter as well to my laptop when away if need be. Why am I seeing those messages or disconnected?

    I have been using the free version for over a year without trouble and within the last couple of weeks it times out within a couple minutes and then forces me to wait before I have to login again. How can I fix this or who can I contact?

    Started just a couple weeks ago that business activity had been detected and that I was being limited. Limits the amount of time I can be remoted into the pc then makes me wait to reconnect. Not sure what flag I tripped or how but I'm only using this for myself and family. How can I address this?

    Does the free version not work for private use any longer?

    I have a personal account that I use only between my brother and myself. I have been using this since 2016 without issues and have been very pleased up until now. Lately I am getting Time-out issues and TV closes after 10-15 seconds.

    With 256 pages and counting of common comments - where is the support and guidance?!?!

    @TeamViewer @TeamView_free - any guidance????

    Same. I'm now going through the long winded process of asking for my account to be reset. I had the same situation several months ago and they refused. I only use Team Viewer to help my elderly parents with banking and shopping so I don't know why I've been flagged a second time. I'm assuming there has been a change / update.

    i solved the problem by uninstalling and reinstalling it, making sure to remove all settings, and all files in %temp% , %appdata% and all regestries in regedit. it seems to be working fine now
