cypress runner stop immediately if runner's browser loses focus

[touensure]

Hi, I just upgraded my cypress from 13.4.0 to 13.6.1, I find my tests become unstable(it is more likely to fail conpared with former cypress version). Moreover, my tests often take more than one hour to get completed, I need to do other work while leaving cypress running in background, however, cypress runner stop immediately if runner's browser loses focus(this will not happen if I use a former-version cypress).
could anyone help with this issue? thanks a lot.

more info: cypress version 13.5.x also works fine. So the problem only exists in the newest 3.6.x version

Same with 13.6.3

I think this might be related to multi-tab support, but I agree, this is impeding us because I virtually cannot use my machine while I am running a test. As soon as I click anything while the test is running, test loses focus and stops. There should be a setting to allow me to overwrite this behavior.

I ended up downgrading Cypress for now to work around it as it was unserviceable for us. ​​​​ | ***@***.***
