Windows 10: How do I fix chrome closing when it is not the focused app?

I got my laptop MSI Stealth 14 in summer of 2023 and I used to be able to have chome up on one monitor while having another app being focused on my main monitor. Recently, I have not been able to do so, as after a few minutes chrome closes on its own while I am in another app. How can I fix this?

Hi Larry,

To turn off the Focused & other feature in the Mail app, please follow the steps below:

• Open your Mail app
• Click on the Settings icon (looks like a gear).
• Click Options, and search for the layout section.
• Under layout, find Focused Inbox. Select Don't sort messages and then hit
  Save.

We'll look forward to your reply.

 

can't close googel chrome ???

There is a setting in Google Chrome that allows it to continue running various tasks in the background after you have closed the browser window. If this is allowed in your Google Chrome settings, then it can indeed be running even when there is no visible
window. Personally, I don't allow Google Chrome to continue running in the background/ But that is for you to decide. To solve your immediate problem though, I suggest you turn off (don't allow) this option at least temporarily:

1. Start Google Chrome. There should of course be a visible browser window.
2. Access the Google Chrome menu by clicking on the three dots at the top right corner of the browser window (it's just below the standard Microsoft icons to minimize maximize and close the window).
3. Select "Settings" from that menu. Some basic Google Chrome settings should be displayed in the browser.
4. Go to the bottom of the "Basic Settings" page and click on "Advanced".
5. Locate the "System" group within the "Advanced Settings". Its near the bottom of this second settings page.
6. One of the "System" settings is "Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed".
   
   Turn this option OFF by sliding its little button to the left.
7. Close the Google Chrome browser.

There should now be no complaints about Google Chrome still running when you think it isn't.

If you would like to re-enable this feature later, just follow the same 7 Step procedure above.

Of course to re-enable the feature, replace "Turn this option OFF" in Step 6 with "Turn this option
ON".

I hope this helps.
