Did try posting this in the small form factor etc sub, but got no replies, thought I'd try here:

Hey - just acquired my first Pi and getting to grips with it. I'll be running it headless, so far so good, got access via SSH (Using PuTTY - works a treat) but I am having an annoying issue if I connect via VNC.

If I open VNC and paste in "raspberrypi.local:0" it will connect and ask for login and password fine and will log into the Pi desktop. If I then close the session, then double click the image that's now on VNC it will not connect, just eventually says "timed out waiting a response from the computer". If I delete the connection from VNC, then repaste the above it will connect again. A bit frustrating.

Access via PuTTY seems unaffected, and makes no difference to the behaviour from VNC.

Noob to this, so appreciate any pointers - ta :
