Hi! I guess the subject said it already: If someone created a (Windows 7-based) Template HVM based on the assumption it would be a good idea to do this to derive a number of HVMs from it but had to agree that it was not one of his brightest ideas, is it possible to turn this Template HVM into a standalone HVM?

You could create a new standalone hvm using the template as a source (in the dialog, click standalone first, then hvm, then select the template). If you're on btrfs, Qubes will create a reflink from the original disk images, so it will be instant and take no extra space.
If not on btrfs, then it will duplicate all the data from the template images. To avoid this, you can create a regular hvm (click hvm in the dialog and standalone should grey-out) then manually move the root.img and private.img files from the template to the new hvm.
