Windows Teamviewer prevents sleep

in General questions

Teamviewer running on an MSI gaming laptop that lives in a different room from me for VR gaming. Connecting to it from a Macbook using Teamviewer in another room.

If Teamviewer is installed (doesn't have to be connected) on the Windows machine, it will no longer sleep, ever. If I uninstall Teamviewer, it immediately resumes normal sleeping. Latest Teamviewer as of right now.

Is there a solution for this?

    So nothing? Is this just a known and accepted issue with using TeamViewer?

    Seems this forum is pretty much abandoned? Only seems to be a handful of posts per day as far as I can tell. I'm really stunned that nobody has any comment on this issue which completely prevents me from using Teamviewer. Shame.

    Wow so even months later... nothing. I guess Teamviewer is essentially abandonware now?
