Description
Since upgrading to VBox 6.1.x (Win10 64)I noticed that the program frequently fails in correctly restoring the VM window size (especially if non maximized) when starting a VM from a saved state.
The VM starts normally (although with much less precision in the progress indicator, also since VBox 6.1x) but the VM window, after flashing for a moment at the saved size, shrinks to 640x480 and has to be manually resized, while obviously all the guest's desktop icons get rearranged and any open program windows gets shrunk as well. This doesn't happen always but often (on an apparently random basis) and never happened, as far as I remember, with previous releases. I couldn't yet spot any clear and reproducible cause.
This is not a major problem, obviously. However it actually IS some kind of malfunction. At first I thought it could be just a momentary little regression in the new major update, but since it's still there in the latest 6.1.6 I thought I'd report it here too.
