    Backend "locked" screen

    Hi. I just upgraded to a new version of Umbraco (6.2.4), and now this "locked" screen seems to be coming up on the backend all the time.  Never seen that before.  How can I disable it?

    Hi Chris,

    The locked screen comes normally when a user is inactive in 20 minutes, which it the defualt value. You can change this value in the webconfig file, to e.g 1440, which is a day.

    <appSettings>
        <add key="umbracoTimeOutInMinutes" value="20" />
    </appSettings>

    Perhaps, it necessary for you to recycle app pool before it takes effect.

    Here are some couple of articles about the topic too.

    Hope this helps,

    /Dennis

    Thanks!  I found that increasing umbracoTimeOutInMinutes fixes the problem.
