having installed Version 1.20.0.1 on a Windows-10 box I tried to run several applications from an xterm. Many worked well, some are slow (acrobat reader) and Mozilla tools (Firefox and Thunderbird) cause VcXsrv to hang. The X-Clients run on an OpenSuSE Leap.

Same thing here, I think. Clients are on a local Ubuntu 18.04 VM: nautilus launches fine, but VS Code or Google Chrome will hang VcXsrv.

Same here. Tried Firefox and VS Code on physical CentOS 7 server. Those apps don't display, and VcXsrv hangs, while gedit will display. VcXsrv running on windows 10.

Same configuration on another computer : Clients are on a local Ubuntu 18.04 VM. Works like a charm with VcXsrv 1.19.6.0

This seems to be the case with NVidia cards? See #94. Try disabling native gl?
