Maybe you need to explain your problem a bit better. Have you tried increasing your session timeout?

By default our websites session timeout is 20 mins after that session will gets expire suppose if we want to set our custom timeout in our applications we can set it in different ways (web.config, global.asax and in IIS)

Check below methods to set session timeout in web.config, global.asax and in iis

In Web.config file we can set session timeout like as shown below

C#

<configuration>
<system.web>
 <sessionstate mode="InProc" timeout="60">
 </sessionstate>
 </system.web>
</configuration>

reference

Asp.net set session timeout.. :)[^]

Updated

if session is already expired then you can not convert it into string from .toString()
try this..

C#

if(Session["username"]!=null || Session["username"]!="")
{
    lblUserName.Text = Convert.ToString(Session["username"]);

}
else

{
// cODE TO FILL SESSION VALUE
}
