Every few days IRC, KeePass has been asking for the master password again. I went to check the setting in Tools>Options>Security, and I did not find a relevant overriding setting. The first two entries are lock workspace..inactivity.. Both of those are de-selected. Plus this latest re-login was not long after KeePass activity.
Under the Tools>Options>Security General subheading, all 7 are de-selected.
Logging in again has not been a burden, but I was wondering where the controlling setting is. Currently using 2.54.
Where is the control (other than the inactivity?)

I did not find a relevant overriding setting.
Do you mean that this issue occurs once in a while? Or are you leaving the KeePass workspace unlocked for days at a time? The latter practice seems like a bad idea even in a protected environment.
Are you certain that you aren’t starting KeePass instead of maximizing it? Starting vs maximizing may not be obvious depending on how you initiate database use, e.g., by clicking on a database shortcut.
Are you certain that you are not accidentally locking the workspace (Ctrl+L) or exiting KeePass by pressing CTRL+Q or the exit button in the upper right-hand corner? These user actions can become reflexive.
If you use triggers or plugins, disable them.

What is IRC?

Yes, I am leaving KeePass up for days at a time in a protected environment.
Ctrl+L seems possible, but the L key is not near stuff I usually use with Ctrl. But I certainly have hit keys, and missed apparently, with other programs and done things I did not intended. And I don't know what keys I hit by mistake.
No triggers or plugins.
IRC should have been IIRC -- if I remember correctly.
Is there a setting for causing KeePass to require relogin periodically other than the inactivity-related ones?
I really like KeePass. I was just wondering if I was missing something. It could be windows 11 related. I miss 7.

I still don't know what IIRC is. Is something called IIRC asking you to unlock/open a KeePass database? Maybe it is the RPC plugin attempting to negotiate a connection between KeePass and a browser form filling extension. Are you using, or have you used a form filler with KeePass? Check for the RPC plugin in Tools>Plugins....

Not periodically, but workspace locking can be triggered by various events, such as KeePass minimization. I understood from you first post that you had disabled all 7 of these settings. Once the KeePass workspace is locked, you must enter the database master key to unlock/open the database.

IIRC is a common string to represent "If I Remember Correctly".
I use no plugins.
Thanks. It appears that I am not missing a setting.
