and here https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/12513

Description: when my device goes to sleep it closes my apps which were installed with Microsoft Store.

Device: Microsoft Laptop Studio

System: Windows 11, all updates installed, drivers up to date.

Tried: all solutions from topics above.

  1. Reset Microsoft Store.
  2. Re-register all its apps and store itself with a powershell (successfully).

Result: none.

Additional info: I'm using 4-6 desktops and constantly switching between. If I have some of MS apps on some screen it can be closed (without any crash message) just on desktop switching (but not always). If laptop goes to sleep - all MS apps are closed every time.

PS: asked my co-workers with win11 - the problem persists almost on every machine with win11. Weird that Microsoft doesn't fix it. It's very annoying.

    Hi Elijah. I'm Greg, here to help you with this.

    Try these fixes for WIndows closing apps during sleep, fixes same for Windows 10 and 11:

    Here is everything that works best for fixing sleep in Windows 11:

    1. Troubleshoot the display driver which controls everything about sleep:

    1. Troubleshoot Sleep to find and fix problems:

    What I do is set Power Plan timeouts to 1 minute for Display and Sleep, then 2 minutes for Hibernate. After each step in the tutorials above, restart PC and sit back to observe if the timeouts work. If so set them back to Plan defaults:

    Feel free to ask back any questions. If you'll report back results for each step, including in each link, it can help determine what else we need to try. I will stick with you until it is fixed.

    Thanks for the feedback. Could you follow the steps outlined in the link below to enable hibernation?

    https://www.groovypost.com/howto/enable-or-disa...

    Then check if it is appearing in the energy saving options, if it is then set the hibernation to Never just to see how Sleep behaves this time.

    Hi, my name is Anderson Souza, I hope I can help you with your issue.

    Elijah, in your power saving settings, within the Sleep options, do you have the Hibernate option? How is this option configured?
