the safest way is to open the programs while connected and then minimize them.  when done using do not close them, minimize them.

 

presumably you will be using a laptop so as long as you don't do a restart the computer apps will stay open.  ie, if you rarely restart your laptop, you might want to restart it before doing this.

It doesn't work, I'm not on a laptop, it's a desktop computer that I'm moving. when I minimize (reduce the window?) I can't log out, and I will need to turn off the computer to save power. when I disconnect I can no longer use Adobe tools.
I use windows 11.
