I only just recently started trying to tinker and use my wallet properly. Long overdue, but have now used this "freeze" feature a couple times and wish I had delved deeper into the Electrum features sooner. I came across this while trying to sort out specifying a specific change address, found what seems to be the only option for that on an older forum post as well, using the Pay to many feature. Still haven't played with that to much but it's next on the list.
Is coin-control for unconfirmed UTXOs implemented for electrum, i.e. can you freeze them individually? If not, you could make an Issue on Github and ask them to fix/implement/etc.
Appreciate the bread crumbs.

Thanks everyone for your valuable input. Actually my answer was on first reply by @Lauda behind of question. I realised it last night during make transaction. I could freeze individually transaction and address as well. So I can spend from any unspent transaction. Learning practicality is pretty good and I did it.

I have the exact same issue. Can someone help?
Hope you got your answers.


Anyway I will keep this thread open, so perhaps some others would learn from it same like me.

Thank you

Someone already answered the question:

Select 'View -> Show Coins' and right-click on specific coins in the 'Coins' tab to either spend from or freeze them. You can do the same in the 'Addresses' tab if you enable it.

You can freeze every address and UTXO individually.~

What client are you using?
Have you not read the thread? He stated several times that he's using Electrum.

No SPV wallets for me, thus the question was directed at him for learning purposes. Let those seeking help tinker; for future sake: I don't need an answer to any question that I post in this sub.

Summary is, I can not spent individual unspent transaction from my address if there is multiple unspent transaction. Or still am I missing something? Curious to know.

What client are you using? For certain wallets, they tend to spend all the UTXO at the same time to enhance privacy. It helps to reduce the number of UTXOs that the wallet would have to handle and consolidate all the unused coins into a single UTXO. Electrum does this and it can be changed in the settings.

Otherwise, for Bitcoin Core, you can manually choose the UTXOs to spend.

1) Use this explorer: https://blockstream.info/address/1Q4xJNNmyPEy3iP3v2xKPn837Uic3i4wYk. Stop being tracked all over by blockchain.info.
2)
Is that means whatever unspent transaction available on my address all of them will move to change address when I will try to make new transactions? Or am I missing something? I know about send fund from single address even I have fund on multiple address at same wallet. I was use electrum.
No, it does not mean that. The selection of UTXOs as inputs (confirmed or not) for a transaction solely depends on the used algorithm and its implementation in Electrum.

For reference: Bitcoin Core does not have this for unconfirmed UTXOs, and thus you would not be able to control spending from them using the GUI.

There was 2 unspent transaction on my address with 0.1BTC each. Means I had 0.2BTC on my address. So I were need to transfer almost 0.07BTC to some address. I were thought since there is 2 unspent transaction I might able to use one of them, and rest 0.1BTC would remain on same address and 0.03BTC (except fee) will be move on change address.

But when I broadcast transaction, both unspent transaction move from my address and remain 0.13BTC (except fee) return to my change address.

Is that means whatever unspent transaction available on my address all of them will move to change address when I will try to make new transactions? Or am I missing something? I know about send fund from single address even I have fund on multiple address at same wallet. I was use electrum.

Here is address: 1Q4xJNNmyPEy3iP3v2xKPn837Uic3i4wYk (it was my first transaction to multiple address at once),

Summary is, I can not(1) spent individual unspent transaction from my address if there is multiple unspent transaction. Or still am I missing something? Curious to know.

Edit:
 (1) Learned  how spend from individual unspent transactions.
