Research direction

Start by reproducing the account switch on Windows with inactive sessions for already-read or merged pull requests that still show notification bubbles. The work is done when switching accounts no longer changes those closed PR sessions to "interrupted" states.

I switched the user on a new session to work with the right account, and then all my active sessions (blue notifiication icons) are showing "interupted" states:

Steps to reproduce

No response

Expected behavior

Leave my closed PR sessions alone

Additional context

I think these session still had notification bubbles on them (I never grasped why that keeps on happening, the session was read, and the PR's where already merged), which I think causes this issue.

I expected this was also fixed after #3753 was fixed.
