    Description

      Reproduction steps

      • Bootup the LiveCD
      • after the language-selection there comes a dialog that allows you to "run the LiveCD", click it
      • shortly afterwards there will be a cmd-window that attempts to run some REG-script
      • If you click into this Window with the right mouse button, it will open a context menu
        ros enters some strange deadlock situation then.
        the context menu can be closed, but is not repainted until you move the cmd offscreen and back to force a repaining
        the cmd window will never finish its job
        even if you forcefully close the cmd window via top-right-x-button, ros will still be in this strange deadlock-state, because it is not possible anymore afterwards to open the startmenu (for example)

      Could be a bug in win32ss (or in cmd)?

      0.4.15-dev-7243-g474a8ea_rightClickDeadLock.log

      I could reproduce that five times in a row, the reproducibility is good for me.
