Hello, I’m using WhonixOS in Virtual Box on a device running Windows 11, but always when I try to double click icons it’s not detected. Only when I double click extremtly fast it gets detected, I already changed the settings in WhonixOS but that has no effect.

        Alright we’re getting somewhere. Have you tried another virtualization method instead of Virtualbox? Is your software up to date? What are your system specifications? By Linux VM do you mean a VM specifically running in Virtualbox on Windows? Which Linux VM? Does this affect all Distributions that you may use?

          Nope, not so far. I can try Hyper-V and see if this has a similar result. Yes, always. Basically Windows 11 with a good amount of RAM, a good CPU and a good Graphic Card, Yes, Whonix, another debian based distribution had the same problem, I did not tried other distributions yet.

            Okay, searching for a few things I can think of. Until I find somthing, a few more questions. Does changing the click speed do anything, if barely noticeable as the difference is negligible or does it do absolutely nothing? Also, if you were to install another guest os please try Windows. I have a nasty suspicion that Windows may have bad support for Virtualbox running non Windows machines. Are you sure that your processor supports virtualization? Might you provide me with a log file?

                Start the VM from full normal shutdown, not save-state. Run until you see the problem happen, maybe provoke it by trying to change the mouse click speed, then shut down the VM from within the VM’s OS.

                Right-click the VM in the main Virtualbox window’s VM list, choose Show Log. Save the far left tab’s log and the hardening log next to it, zip them, and paste them in some online pasting service or what have you.

                Try using the PS/2 mouse in the VM’s Pointing Device settings. These settings should also provide you with other useful options.
