Win10 guest system settings frozen

Post by msprivat »

Host system: Linux 20.3 Una
Guest system: Win10 21H2
AMD Ryzen 7 2700X
NVIDIA GP107 [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti] vendor: ASUSTeK driver: nvidia v: 510.73.05 bus ID: 09:00.0 chip ID: 10de:1c82

Problem:
I tried to change system settings in the Win10 guest system.
When I run the system settings the screen is light blue and I see the gear symbol. Then the screen is frozen.
When I minimize and switch back to full screen I see the system settings but I can not select them.
After a while the system settings screen switch to black colour. If I close the screen with "x" I came back to the desktop.
The problem occurs only in the system settings when I choose the system settings in the windows guest system.

I attached the log.
Does anybody have experience with that phenomenon and how it can be solved:?:

Best regards
Michael
