I found the situation when "window" of WIn7 freeze. "Window" become unresponsive for all mouse events. But Windows7 still working and I can use "Win" key to open Start Menu after I switched to "non seamless mode".
I can unfreeze the VM by some keyboard events.

The situation can be reproduced with with the mouse that have "BACK" button. 

So, it's occur when I click "back" button on the mouse. And all opened windows on this WinVM freeze :)

Thanks

Mouse "back" button 100% freeze open window of Window Explorer (file explorer). Does not tested on other apps.

Does it work in Qubes 2 and NOT freeze?
What about 3.0 and 3.1?

Just asking, because I noticed issues in certain versions with certain things.
things that I know are bugs with the mouse and actions.
there are so many, it's easier if you just let me know those details and I can reply with resolution if there is one that I already found.

I can not test it on Qubes 2 or 3.0, because my hardware does not support it, because of old kernel at 3.1 dom0. 
It's on latest 3.2rc1
Win7 x64 with all latest updates (only without updates that force to move to Win10)

New info: Seems I can unfreeze it by right click (maybe not always, but right now its works)
ps. Is it possible to remove "Welcome to..." fullscreen window that show for 1-3 secs before windows go to seamless mode?
Thanks
