Fusion / Mac issues

[timothyhinessr]

I recently updated my Mac to the most updated operating system, Mac OS Big Sur version 11.2.1.  (installed by a professional) Now when I leave Fusion running inactive for a while and then come back, I get the below pictured message and have to force quit Fusion and restart it to continue using it.  This is frustrating and a waste of time.  Fusion seems to be working fine otherwise although it does tend to freeze up now and then while when I try to do things too fast.  Any ideas?

@timothyhinessr,

That message usually corresponds to macOS logging out or shutting down, rather than Fusion being idle. Does your Mac sign out automatically due to inactivity?

Lance, thanks for the reply.  A Google search for this issue reveals that it's a common problem when upgrading to the Big Sur operating system.  Pretty clear it isn't a Fusion issue.  I've reached out to my computer technician in hopes that he can get it resolved for me.  Thanks.
