Been using Kodi on Nvidia Shield for about 3 years. Up until now, when I exit an app(ie Tablo, Disney+, Philo, etc) it opened right back into Kodi. For the last several weeks, it now exits the app and Kodi has to restart. Is there a setting I have inadvertently changed to cause this behavior? Any thoughts on what I can do to stop this behavior?

If it needs to the Shield will close apps down, it all depends on what you're running.

"Ideally you should be exiting Kodi cleanly using the power menu when not in use, it is a good practice to have. It will then start cleanly when you open it again, not really a hardship. Do you have Kodi doing something in the background that you don't want interrupted? "
Not sure I understand what you mean. If I use Kodi as my launcher to start other programs, then Kodi is running in the background, and I am unable to exit it using the power menu. I don't want to re-open Kodi, I want the Shield to go back to Kodi when I close the app that I used Kodi to open. This has been its operating process for the last 3 years.
I believe I am on Shield version 8.9, I have not upgraded to the latest update. Kodi is version 18.9.
