Bot process stops when locking local laptop screen despite using a remote desktop for the bot

Hi all,

I am running my bot on a remote desktop and have noticed that when I lock my PC it stops the process on the VM, is there a way round this, as surely if the bot is running on a VM it shouldn’t be affected by my laptop? I think using “Simulate Click/Type” might help, but this latest stoppage happened when saving reports down from the web, it stopped as it timed out (never happened before except when locking my screen, and it had stopped where it was when I locked the screen).

Thanks,

Alex

Anyone had any luck running an attended bot in a VM and locking their laptop without it stopping?
