StreamDeck Plugin stops working after Windows sleeps

Salutations!

I know that the original StreamDeck plugin made by @ripnet and tweaked by @lngarrett isn't being maintained anymore. I use my StreamDeck to control lights and fans in my office and I was hoping for a solution to a problem.

If Windows goes into sleep mode, when I start using the computer again, the Hubitat plugin remains disconnected and icons greyed out on the Streamdeck. Everything else seems good but I have to shutdown StreamDeck and reboot it to get the functionality back.

I did try making a Task in the Windows taskschd.msc that starts on with:

/c taskkill /f /im StreamDeck.exe && start "" "C:\Program Files\Elgato\StreamDeck\StreamDeck.exe" --runinbk

It worked for about a day.

Any ideas would be appreciated (or somebody to take over the project from @ripnet (since he moved on and has offered to give it up)

I may have fixed it, if anyone is encountering this problem, by adding a delay in the Windows task:

/c taskkill /f /im StreamDeck.exe && timeout /t 5 && start "" "C:\Program Files\Elgato\StreamDeck\StreamDeck.exe" --runinbk

My Steamdeck and Hubitat buttons have been coming back online now. Hopefully this helps someone
