I have a problem with lightburn locking up after a longer burn say 10 min
I have a xtool d1 pro 20 watt
The laser will finish the burn then and go home, once there then program freezes.
To unfreeze I have shut off the laser and bring up my other laser in lightburn using a different com port , turn the laser back on and choose the xtool laser and different com port then everything is ok
until the next burn

      I haven’t seen this, but here is something I would check.
      
      Windows 10 devices have a Selected Suspend USB feature that turns off the USB Ports when they’re not in use. If the port ‘goes quiet’ for long enough Windows will turn the port off. Controllers that communicate quickly and have a large buffer (like the xTool) can happily complete the project with what it has in the buffer while the timer counts down.
      
      it’s the only thing I can think of that might be responsible for the odd behavior you’re seeing.
