When can we finally exclude games from Quick Resume?

Hi, when you open the game in your Series X. The game starts from the quick resume / the quick resume feature is used?
Or did you open the game from the start?

Hi MemZ785,

Quick resume is only built for games, so no it wouldn't bump these out from opening apps like Rewards or Edge for example.
