This has happened to me every time. Minecraft starts windowed, then I maximize it, but if I try to go back to "windowed" size, then maximize it again, the screen freezes, but you can still interact with everything. Not sure if this is just on my end or if it is already known.
yep, we all know about and are irritated by this bug.
for the record, it doesn't happen if you simply maximize the window by double clicking the title bar, only if you fullscreen it by using F11, and while you can still use the keyboard and move the mouse, the game becomes unresponsive to mouse clicks when back in windowed mode. You can make it work again by fullscreening it again.
Furthermore, I can also verify that this bug is not confined to windows, it happens on mac and linux too.
