Hello,  in Thunderbird when I do open-in-vm and check firefox it has

You're right. It isn't how disposableVMs are supposed to work.

The obvious question is, what did you select when you "did" open-in-vm?
If you selected an appVM, have you made sure that you have made that
appVM in to a template for disposableVMs?
(qvm-prefs <qube> template_for_dispvms True)

Also check to see what you have set in
/etc/qubes-rpc/policy/qubes.OpeninVM  and
/etc/qubes-rpc/policy/qubes.OpenURL

unman



What I did/have done is for secure printing(per Qubes docs advice) , cloned
fedora-29 -> fedora-29printtemplate,  then I use the clone as the template
for an AppVM (named fedoraprintqube).

when I do :
$qvm-prefs fedoraprintqube

template - fedora-29printtemplate
template_for_dispvms - True

$qubes-prefs

default_dispvm - fedoraprintqube


re: "what did I choose"  there is only 1 choice  in Thunderbird
Open-in-dispvm

right click and choose and it open the atttachment in a dispvm


re: rpc policy  everything is as default setup


further the AppVM in which Thunderbird is  running  has it's  default DispVM
set to:  fedoraprintqube



is there some  directory  I  should  clear  where  dispVM  information would
be stored to  perhaps  reset  the system ?


or any further ideas  welcome  regards

There was an issue before where disposableVMs were leaking information
but that was under 3 where the structure was somewhat different.
There may be 2 cases:
1. a disposableVM is created and you are seeing information from the
underlying fedoraprintqube - normal, and to be expected;
2. a disposableVM is created and you are seeing information from a previous
disposableVM session. Bug.
Are you able to rule out (1) and confirm that it is (2)? When a qube is
created, it is definitely named dispXX?


ah ok , so it's #1 , so what is disposed of in this configuration by using the DVM based on a AppVM instead of a TemplateVM ?

or is there any benefit for the disposable-ness ? perhaps I should be using a Template for true disposable data ?
