Question

Hi, is there a way to change the timeout of an environment in  Cloud9?, i've created  an env in cloud9 with 30mins by default, i would like add  more time when the env is inactive, cheers.

Accepted Answer

**To change the environment timeout you have to:**

* Open the environment that you want to change settings for. To open an environment, see [Opening an Environment](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloud9/latest/user-guide/open-environment.html).

* In the **AWS Cloud9 IDE**, on the menu bar, choose AWS Cloud9, Preferences. (Gear symbol in the top right corner)

* In the Preferences window, choose Project Settings.

* Go to the **EC2 instance section** and change the timeout value (_'Stop my environment'_ option).

I leave you the [instructions in detail](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloud9/latest/user-guide/change-environment.html#change-environment-single) of the whole process, and also other options to change the environment settings (You can do it with the console and via code as well).
