[Word]Annotations in Word document are removed automatically after an amount of idle time

[bamby084]

Your Environment

• Platform [PC desktop, Mac, iOS, Office on the web]: PC desktop, Office on the web
• Host [Excel, Word, PowerPoint, etc.]: Word

Current behavior

If we don't have any activities on Word document for an amount of time, let's say 30 minutes. Then when getting back to the document, annotations are removed automatically.

Expected behavior

Annotations should not be removed. Or if they are, there should be such an event so I know to recreate them.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create some simple annotations as described in the Microsoft sample document.
2. Leave the document there for a while, let's say 30 mins.
3. Get back to the document, type some text. Now you will see the annotations are gone.
