What's Wrong?

After switching between two accounts in Claude Code on Windows, the device lock remains stuck. Dispatch shows "offline" even though all other services are online.

What Should Happen?

Device lock should automatically release when Claude detects the process is no longer running.

Lock persists despite all troubleshooting steps, even after 10+ minutes.
