Anonymous site with Form Based Authentication is showing login page for Application Pages
I have a site with Anonymous access and Form Based authentication enabled.
When a user opens normal site page then it opens fine with no issue.
But when a user open Application Page then it shows that screen where user has to choose whether to select Windows Authentication or Form Based Authentication. Is there a way so this screen is not shown and user goes straight to site page?
Anonymous access is already enabled so it should not ask for authentication isn't it?

Hello Frank,
By default, once you attempt to access an admin area in SharePoint, you will automatically get prompted to login again if you have anonymous turned on. This includes any lists, libraries, system files, etc...

Fixed it by inheriting my application page from UnsecuredLayoutsPageBase class. Previously I was inheriting from LayoutsPageBase class.
