dockurr/windows keeps the container up while the Windows guest may have crashed internally, so restart: unless-stopped never fires and every terminal API in that VM stays dead until a human acts. watchdog.sh is the host-side recovery: run from cron every few minutes, it discovers the VM containers by compose labels, and docker restart only the ones whose Docker health has stayed unhealthy for a sustained streak. Healthy or starting VMs are never touched, so running backtests are not interrupted; a cooldown prevents restart loops. This complements the in-VM MT5AutoReboot task for operators who disable it to protect long backtests.
