Hi I have Sierra running on a windows PC on my network.
I use remote desktop to access this machine from within the same network.
This works fine.

However I have a problem in that , when I am not logged into the PC, the charts do not update.
Only then when I re-login does it then start updating again.
This affects symbols which are having the suffix -BID at the end as they do not have historical data.
Also impacts any automation

Is there a way to keep Sierra chart updating continously even though I am not logged into the pc?
thanks

This is not a question for Sierra Chart. You need to find out why you are having this problem. We have no idea. This is not a Sierra Chart issue. This is an operating system problem. You need to figure out why you are having this issue.

We know on a Windows computer when using Remote Desktop Connection, Sierra Chart will continue to run even when disconnected from that desktop with Remote Desktop Connection. But you need to make sure not to log out. Just simply disconnect.
