Catalina logging out when idle for no reason
Despite having every setting I can find in System Preferences telling it not to, my late 2014 iMac is logging itself out of my (admin and only) user account when idle for more than about 30 minutes. It's also refusing to log in on startup automatically. This behaviour began recently with no obvious cause.
Could this be some preference file getting corrupted? All suggestions welcome...
iMac, OS X 10.10
