Hi Robert I'm sorry my previous post wasn't clear enough. A DisposableVM is based on a DisposableVM Template. You have created a DisposableVM Template. You can use it to spawn disposableVMs. You can do this by hand: qvm-run dispvm=fedora-32-dvm-template --service qubes.StartApp+xterm Setting the qvm-features as you have done *should* create menu items that will spawn disposableVMs that use that template. If you wanted to create disposableVMs based on a qube that uses the fedora-32 template, that is what you have done. If that is *not* what you were attempting, please explain exactly what it is you want. (If you think that your fedora-32-dvm-template should itself be a DisposableVM , please re-read the glossary, and the page on disposableVMs: *this* attempt is based on a misunderstanding of how disposableVMs are created in Qubes 4.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
