GUEST:
Windows XP (same issue with Windows 7 and Windows 10)
Freeze while using Microsoft Excel 2010 (same issue with Excel 2016 with Windows 10)
ISSUE:
I often use copy/paste feature to copy data from Excel to my Text editor. After some time (about 20-30s in this example/log), I can no longer switch to the host by clicking on the window in the KDE task bar.
I can switch to KDE windows by pressing Right Ctrl then Alt + Tab. However I can't click on items (select files, move windows...).
The situation lasts 10-30 seconds depending on the version of Excel/Windows and the configuration of the VM.
You will may notice that RAM and the number of CPUs are high for a Windows XP guest but I need power to execute macros in Excel.
If you need further information, request them of course!
Thank you.
