Quickbooks Online Desktop App logs me out

The system automatically logged you out daily to safeguard your information due to inactivity, DenverDTS. I'm here to provide details of the timeout feature and the login duration for the desktop app.

QuickBooks Online (QBO) desktop app logs you out automatically after a period of inactivity for security reasons, thus why you're signed out daily when idle. The system monitors inactivity based on your last mouse movement, click, or keyboard typing.

Moreover, the app stores your login credentials and auto-launches QBO, keeping you logged in for six months unless you sign out manually. However, if you notice unusual behavior, check the steps below to clear the accumulated cache:

1. Go to the Help icon at the top menu bar. 
2. Choose Reset App Data.
3. Close and re-open your QuickBooks App for Windows/Mac.
4. Tick the Stay Signed In box upon signing in to retain your credentials.

Lastly, check this page for a list of function keys to enhance navigation: QuickBooks Online Desktop App Windows Keyboard Shortcuts.

No, this didn't work. Logged me out of the desktop QBO app within a day. 

Any other ideas? 

Thanks for your help.
