Thanks! I tried using virtual desktops but EA Studio stops running when I switch to another desktop.

Looks like the other solution (lots of tiled browser windows) is the only work-around.

This is how the browsers work. They suspend the execution of the inactive tabs to save power (battery).

The best practice for using multiple copies of EA Studio is to open each copy in a separate instance of a browser window. EA Studio must be in an active tab. You can have tens of open browsers with one EA Studio tab.

Hi all,

I am running EA Studio inside the Chrome browser on Windows 11. If I set an optimisation running then switch to another tab in the browser, or switch to another virtual desktop (which I use a lot so I can multi-task several projects at once) the optimisation in EA Studio pauses indefinitely. It remains paused forever, until I return to the desktop with Chrome on it and select the EA Studio tab.

Is this a known issue? Is there any way to get EA Studio to keep running regardless of the active browser tab or active desktop?

Thanks!
