New Qubes user here. Running a Win7 VM for many work tasks. Once I set it up I 
could copy-to-vm just fine, with a QubesIncoming folder showing up and 
everything. Then I domain-joined the W7 install and got a new user account, the 
user account I set up during install was renamed admin and I dont use it unless 
I have to now.

 

All of a sudden, copy-to-vm doesnt work as expected. The file is clearly sent 
just as normal. But I cant find it anywhere on the W7 hard drive. Whats weirder 
is, if I try to send it a 2nd time I get the error message

qfile-agent: Fatal error: File copy: not overwriting existing file. Clean 
QubesIncoming dir, and retry copy; Last file: test.txt (error type: File exists)

 

So, my guess is that its written somewhere to the W7 disk, but qfile-agent is 
confused as to where exactly it should end up, and its probably written to a 
dir that Windows for some reason doesnt even see. Is there anywhere in the 
settings for the VM where I can change the incoming directory to match my 
current user profile?

 

(Ive tried to re-install the Windows tools as well; didnt make any difference.)

 

Thanks!
