On Big Sur/Macbook Air M1. InDesign 17 (2022) freezes for 45 seconds turns black then shows Apple login page. Happening while editing layout text in simple 52 page layout. Tried with and w/o monitor, mouse, keyboard attached, deleted preferences, reinstalled InDesign, tried turn off GPU. I "save as" layout when I login again but concerned document will corrupt and wasted 4+ hrs yesterday resaving and redoing parts that had not saved while working though saving often.

Hello, what M1 Air have you?
Do you have Plug ins or extensions installed?
It could be a font issue.
1 - Can you check the system requirements? https://helpx.adobe.com/in/indesign/system-requirements.html
2 - If all is good, go to check plug ins and extensions
3 - If all is also good, go to check fonts.
After that, is this issue happen only on this file or when you do a specific action?

Update and need help... On my new Air the problem also crashed then to Login while Googling. Apple store could not find hardware issue but is exchanging air since within buying period. NOW I have been working on that InDesign project on old 2014 Macbook Pro and after working for awhile it froze went to black and to Login screen. Is this an InDesign issue...I can't be corrupting or losing a project and resaving (versus saving) the file frequently is not a good work around.
