Description:
Sets a time limit for active Terminal Services sessions.
Use this setting to specify the maximum amount of time a Terminal Services session can be active before the user session is automatically disconnected. By default, Terminal Services allows users an unlimited time for an active session.
To use this setting, select the Active session limit in the drop-down list. To enforce the default behavior and specify that active sessions are unlimited, select "Never".
If you enable this setting, Terminal Services ends active remote sessions after the specified amount of time. The user receives a two-minute warning that the Terminal Services session is about to end, allowing him or her to save open files and close programs.
If you disable this setting or do not configure it, time limits for active sessions are not specified at the Group Policy level.
