i have a windows dedicated server where i host a music stream on twitch but when i disconnect from it the stream stops working because the windows user is disconnected. How do i prevent the server from pausing the OBS process and continue in the background.
My workaround was to order a cheap linux vps to rdp on it 24h/7 and i would vnc on the linux to access the windows server.
Thanks

The OP already stated that when he disconnects (not logs out) the stream stops. – I say Reinstate Monica – 2018-03-09T17:54:44.630
Disconnect could mean that he is logging out, or closing. We don't know – JohnnyVegas – 2018-03-09T18:16:09.333
I see your point given the conflicting question title, but given the significance to RDP of the term disconnect, I suspect the OP really means exactly that. – I say Reinstate Monica – 2018-03-09T18:18:40.397
No services or applications stop when you disconnect, as he mentions. I'm assuming that he's logging out ... – JohnnyVegas – 2018-03-09T18:55:06.670
some applications stop working as expected when a user is disconnected, even though the program could continue running if so designed. It's actually a common problem. – I say Reinstate Monica – 2018-03-09T18:57:01.987
then how do i stop logging out at the end of a session thanks a lot – LeJork – 2018-03-09T20:13:11.193
@LeJork you choose disconnect on the Start menu of the remote machine, or click the X in the Remote Desktop Connection bar at the top of the remote session's screen. – I say Reinstate Monica – 2018-03-09T20:42:43.987
@JohnnyVegas it looks like you were correct that the OP is logging out instead of disconnecting! +1 to you. – I say Reinstate Monica – 2018-03-09T20:43:36.317
Does not work : relogging me in when i disconnect and then reconnect – LeJork – 2018-03-09T21:11:31.617
Try VNC server to view your server locally instead. – JohnnyVegas – 2018-03-09T22:56:12.640
