For both Template and AppVM's it's easy enough to backup and restore the entire

Thanks for you
Just reviving a thread of mine from a few months ago with a related follow-up
question.
When trying to connect to a VPN using openvpn from a Debian-9 AppVM within
Qubes, I could connect but instantly lost DNS resolution which rendered the
connection unusable.

Further update: I decided to try a completely different VPN provider's config
file, and to my surprise that one worked fine using the old simple method of
calling openvpn from the AppVM.

I realize it's possible to create a dedicated ProxyVM and use NetworkConfig to
route VPN traffic, but that's not what I'm asking about.

Here's what I've done so far:
Created a new Windows 7 SP1 HVM by using an .iso as I've done many times
successfully in the past on Qubes 3.2. Everything works fine, HVM is created
and runs correctly, internet connection is intact and functioning as expected.

Previously when creating a new Windows HVM on Qubes 3.2, to boot from a

When I try that in Qubes 4.0, I get an error that starts with "Traceback" and

Whenever attempting to launch an app in a DVM, the result is always the same.
The popup message comes up saying "Disp1234 has started", and then nothing
happens. Then about two minutes later, another popup says "Disp1234 has
halted". No app ever launches.

Ever since a routine qubes-dom0-update was interrupted in the middle of the
upgrade process, I can no longer run any updates on dom0. Instead I see the

Just to clarify, the original abort/glitch happened after all updates were
successfully *downloaded*, but during the upgrade/install process itself.
At present when I try to do:

Qubes 3.2
Last night I was updating dom0, but in the middle of the update I accidentally
hit some keys on the keyboard, which I now in hindsight realize must have
included Ctrl-Z.
At that point the update just stopped and froze at item 13/42 which just so
happened to be qubes kernel 4.14.67-1.
Generally speaking, once the full release version of Qubes R4.0 is published,
and due to the completely re-worked infrastructure underlying how VMs function
in the newer edition versus the old, will it still be at all possible to
backup-and-restore either Templates or AppVM's from 3.2 over to 4.
A while back I used an extremely simple fix for a similar issue, which may or
may not work in this specific situation described.
In my case I had assigned a network card/controller to the Sys-Net VM, which

As one approach, is there any command that will force a re-download and
re-install of ALL dom0 packages and components, despite cache showing them as
already up to date? If one or more elements are broken or corrupted, a refresh
update might do the trick.
Similar to if I'd made a dom0 backup an
