Remote Development: terminal processes are terminated after update to PyCharm 2026.2

Hello,

After updating to PyCharm 2026.2, remote terminal processes are no longer preserved when closing the IDE.

Previously, in Remote Development mode, I could close PyCharm and reopen it later while my remote terminal sessions and running processes (dev servers, scripts, etc.) continued running.

Now PyCharm asks to terminate processes like:

"Process 'react_part_1_2' Is Running. Do you want to terminate the process?"

Is there a setting or option to restore the previous behavior and keep remote terminal processes running after closing/reopening PyCharm?

Environment:

  • PyCharm 2026.2
  • Remote Development via SSH
  • Terminal engine: Reworked 2025
  • Shell: /bin/bash

Thank you.

I checked: for the "classic" terminal, terminal sessions are successfully saved when restarting Pycharm Remote.

For the Reworked 2025 terminal, they are not saved. However, they were saved for versions prior to 2026.2.

Hi there

This is a known issue being handled here: 

https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IJPL-247248/Terminal-processes-are-not-restored-when-reconnecting-to-IDE-backend

The new message is an quick implementation to inform the users that the sessions will not be saved (based on the bug above). However the final behaviour will be restored once the above bug is fixed.

Please follow the above YT ticket to stay up to date with fix schedule and release.

 

Kind regards,
