Folks,
I have Qubes 3.2 up, updated &
         running like a charm. Now the Microsoft challenge. The doc @
         https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/windows-appvms/ instructs to use
         Windows 7. Do you suggest to stick with version 7 or go ahead to
         10 / 8?

Hi I run windows10 w/o windows tools and I replace cut and paste with an editor 
to generate a file and then I ssh to the other machines.
Also files I can tar.gz and ssh.

Here it is good to install cygwin on the windows10, and
also you want to install classic shell and remove cortana, the spy.
I did this and it works
Now I have Windows 7 up and running, but I have some minor stability problems - 
I used testing version of Qubes Windows Tools as there was no stable version 
avaiable.

Did I do something wrong or indeed there is no stable version of Qubes Windows 
Tools?

There is no version of qubes-windows-tools in the stable repo. The latest 
testing version is 3.2.1-3 and the prior testing release series was 3.0.4-1.

After much testing with Windows 7 on Qubes R3.1, I was unable to get QWT 3.2 
working in a stable fashion. I don't want to lead you astray - this is very 
much YMMV. Everyone seems to have their own personalized experience with 
Windows on Qubes. I think part of the reason for this is that stability is also 
a function of which Windows updates are installed.

I downgraded to QWT 3.0 without PV disk drivers and now have a stable Win 7 
running MS Office with full inter-VM operability.

(Some of the BSODs received while running QWT 3.2:
RDR_FILE_SYSTEM
DRIVER_POWER_FAILURE
QUOTA_UNDERFLOW
BAD_POOL_HEADER
MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
A device driver has pool.)



I fully understand what you say and what I achieved is satisfying from my point of view. However if I'm going to deploy a number of personal productivity workstation in a banking environment the ordinary user will kill my project when he looses his work because of minor unstability.
