Hi,邓超

Welcome to the Microsoft forum.

Based on your description, maybe you need to set the ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutEnabled or ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutWithSingleSignOnEnabled parameter value to $true.When the two parameter’s value are both $false,it will not work even if you had set the ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutInterval value.

Please try to run the following command:

Set-OrganizationConfig – ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutEnabled $true.

More information about these parameters,you can refer to Set-OrganizationConfig (ExchangePowerShell) | Microsoft Learn.

If the value is already been set to $true ,but stll does not work,maybe you need to run:

Set-ItemProperty "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchange OWA" -Name PrivateTimeout -Value 15 -Type DWORD

Set-ItemProperty "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchange OWA" -Name PublicTimeout -Value 15 -Type DWORD

More details refer to: Exchange admin tip: Configure timeout settings for Outlook on the Web (techgenix.com)

And it is mentioned that “in January 2024, Microsoft started retiring activity-based authentication timeout for Outlook on the web” in this link : Activity-based authentication timeout for Outlook on the web in Office 365 - Microsoft Support.

I hope this helps.Please feel free to contact me for any updates.

HI mike hu,

All have been enabled, but it is still not effective at the moment.

[PS] C:>Get-OrganizationConfig |fl activ*

ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutEnabled : True

ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutInterval : 00:05:00

Set-ItemProperty "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchange OWA" -Name PrivateTimeout -Value 05 -Type DWORD

Set-ItemProperty "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchange OWA" -Name PublicTimeout -Value 05 -Type DWORD

Hi,超邓

From my personal experience, the value of PrivateTimeOut must be less than the value of PublicTimeOut configured, you can try it.

Hi,超邓

Just try to set the ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutWithSingleSignOnEnable to $true.

run the command :

Set-OrganizationConfig -ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutWithSingleSignOnEnabled $true

And wait a while for it to take effect.
