What happened?

This happened in 7.2.6 as well. If I try to use Win11 as a guest it constantly hangs here and there until I click the mouse to get it going again. Sometimes the mouse disappears, other times it shows but won't move until I click in Windows.

For example, it was doing a reboot after updating the extensions, the spinning dots would stop, I'd have to click to get them going again, over and over, it ended up doing some Windows updates as well. Once I was back in the VM Windows GUI, you get the hangs util clicked.

Now this same machine has both Win10 and Win11 dual-boot. Windows 10 guest has no issue, it works just as it always has, it's only Win11 guest with the issue. Other VM's have had just Win11 with the issue, I've been using vmware for Win11 more and more because it's hard to get anything done with all the hanging.

How can we reproduce this?

I'm not sure other than having Win11 host (Hyper-V is enabled), with Win11 Guest.

VBox.log

I uploaded log, but not sure it will indicate the hangs or not.

Did you upload all of your necessary log files, screenshots, etc.?

  • Yes, I've uploaded all pertinent files to this issue.
