Please verify that the flag has indeed been set by running `qvm-prefs` command again for this VM.
Also, by default Qubes assumes that the default user in the Windows VM is named `user` -- if one has chosen a different user during Windows installation, Qubes should be informed about this by setting the `default_user` property for the VM, e.g.:

Another things to check are if clipboard copy/paste and file copy works fine with this VM.
