Did you set the inactivity timeout to "Never"? There's an option for that at the top of the dropdown:

Yes, I set it to "never".

I can confirm regardless of settings in the UI, the localdb stores a "custom" duration set to one hour from the time of setting adjustment

Example:

should be:

Aside: I was looking for "never" in the timeout, but didn't see that option. I assume that will set the corresponding value in the above localstorage to false. Also, setting the timeout to >24 days also does not work (immediately trips the timeout?)

Still an issue with 2.3.0 (https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/issues/23133)

[chaseadam]

still an issue with 2.6.1. Though I found the infinite options

though it does not set the values I would expect in LocalStorage

Still an issue with 2.7.6, disables itself after an hour
