You can change the timeout as follows:

<system.web> <authentication mode="Forms"> <forms timeout="99999999"/> </authentication> </system.web>

Additional configuration options can be found here .

Verify that the session timeout is not less than the timeout for forms authentication. Otherwise, it will be difficult for your users to use your site.

You can change the session timeout in the web.config file:

 <system.web> <sessionState timeout="999999999" /> <system.web>

More information can be found here .

It could be a security issue so that someone logs in indefinitely.

I don’t know if you can completely disable it, but you can try setting a large timeout value in your web configuration:

  <authentication mode="Forms"> <forms loginUrl="Login.aspx" timeout="9999" slidingExpiration="true" defaultUrl="~/Default.aspx"/> </authentication>
