We need more information about your code,hardware,Arduino-Version, etc.
How does your MCU behave when you have this minimal sketch with only a log output ?

B4X:
Sub Process_Globals
    Public Serial1 As Serial
    Private Timer1 As Timer
End Sub

Private Sub AppStart
    Serial1.Initialize(115200)
    Log("AppStart")
    Timer1.Initialize("Timer1_Tick", 2000)
    Timer1.Enabled = True
End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Tick
    Dim bState As Boolean = True
    Log("State: ", bState)
    Log("State: ", Not(bState))
End Sub

Not all programs make arduino restart after connection, I've developed many .NET applications for arduino and they don't make arduino restart. Hyper terminal makes arduino restart after connection.

I believe this is a hardware thing. A Pro Mini will restart every time you reconnect. The ESP32 doesn't do this. In the past I just keep the Pro Mini connected to catch a log I need. Use something like PuTTy to write to file or capture long periods of logs. I've done this before on occasion.
