Hello.
Why path tracing can’t work in background? Doesn’t make much sense for me. I mean, I have to wait minutes to complete the calculations just looking at a screen unable to do anything else. Hurray for multitasking.

The UE4/5 path-tracer is progressive, It shouldn’t lock up during a scene. However, the render is tied to your viewport, so you cannot move your viewport without invalidating the scene. If you want to bake out path-traced images, use a camera actor and the movie render cue.
Ok, nice to know. For final export is ok movie render, but sometimes I have to make many tests and if every time I have to use the movie render quee it just slow down the process.
In any case now path tracing not working any more. Yesterday was fine, now the screen it’s just black so what the hell…
Sorry, it’s just I spend more time trying to fix bugs that actual work…
