Human Factors; Procedure
I relieved my fellow Controller; they informed me during the briefing that ZZZ Approach (ZZZ) was open. I sat down and applied my mid configuration settings. My mid configuration settings default to ZZZ airspace not being depicted because typically when we work the Mid shift; ZZZ is closed. I forgot to show that the airspace was open on my scope. I had an IFR aircraft; Aircraft X; westbound and 080. I checked the routing on Aircraft X and it was good so I tried to initiate a handoff to ZZZ1 Approach which was still about 60 miles away. The handoff failed; I assumed it failed because the aircraft was too far from ZZZ1's boundary. I didn't look into it any further. Because I tried to initiate the handoff to ZZZ1; the aircraft's auto handoff was inhibited and ended up flying about one mile into ZZZ airspace without a handoff until I received a call from ZZZ asking if I was talking with Aircraft X. I said yes; and proceeded to hand off the aircraft and ship them to ZZZ.During this pandemic I should have changed my mid configuration settings to default to showing ZZZ open. We are on a mid configuration more often due to low volume and if I had been depicting ZZZ airspace I would not have forgotten that they were open and I would have sent the handoff to them before violating their airspace.
Controller reported using a configuration that did not show an airspace that was open. Controller thought airspace was closed and had an airspace violation.
