Public bug reported: I was able to install and can log in but whenever a pop-up is attempted the VM appears to deadlock. I can still kill -9 the process and recover but the VM and the QEmu console both hang with no error output.
At first I thought it was UAC but renaming a file causes a pop-up and that also deadlocks. I rebuilt QEmu 2.6.0 with debug info and did a thread back-trace once the deadlock occurs. See the attachment for the trace. I am attempting to setup GPU pass-thru with a GTX 970 but this deadlock occurs with -vga std (and no GPU pass-thru) as well. (I cannot install or start Windows 7 but I am told this is a known bug.) ** Affects: qemu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "qemu_deadlock_bt.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1597138/+attachment/4691950/+files/qemu_deadlock_bt.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1597138 Title: Deadlock on Windows 10 pop-up Status in QEMU: New Bug description: I was able to install and can log in but whenever a pop-up is attempted the VM appears to deadlock.
