It isn't clear to me what OP's problem was. It's expected that the number will iterate upwards, but there is no need to remove dvm's manually. They are (should be) culled when the called application exits. Very occasionally I have seen this fail. If you have DVMs that are still on disk, but don't appear in Manager, or qvm-ls , just delete the files off disk. If they DO appear under qvm-ls, just delete with qvm-remove. But if they arent on the list and arent on disk, then they've been automatically culled as expected. If they consistently fail to be removed, I'd suggest removing the DVMTemplate and recreating it. I'd also examine any customizations made to the default templates. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
