Qubes OS version: R4:0

Hey everyone, bear with me as I am somewhat of a noob to Qubes, and haven't 
been on in awhile due to this issue which I have held on the backburner. So one 
day, everything on Qubes was running fine and smoothly, until I (stupidly) 
decided to hard-shutdown my computer with all my vms still up and running, and 
when I booted back on again, I was met with Qubes not working at all. As far as 
booting is concerned, everything appeared to be fine, but sys-net would not 
start, and somehow, the debian-9 template private vm file was gone. Now I have 
tried deleting sys-net and re-creating it from scratch, but nothing has seemed 
to work so far, and I am in desperate need of help, as I have data on certain 
vms, which I'm unable to recover due to sys-net not properly running. Each time 
I used the command "qvm-start sys-net", it takes about 5 seconds for the top 
right corner of the screen to register "Domain sys-net is starting", but then I 
am met with a 60 second long wait time, during which the sys-net vm while 
attempting to start goes from 400MB down to 384MB, until the terminal returns a 
response saying "Cannot connect to qrexec agent for 60 seconds, see 
/var/log/xen/console/guest-sys-net.log for details". It does this each and 
every time I try to start sys-net. I have even checked the guest-sys-net log 
for details, as it has said, but I am met with an insurmountably long list of 
data, some of which I have no clue of what is being said. If someone could 
please help, I would greatly appreciate it, as this problem has kept me from 
using Qubes on my computer for about a year almost now, and I haven't been able 
to figure it out. Plus I have data that I am not willing to lose by completely 
reinstalling Qubes. Thanks!



Affected component(s) or functionality:
sys-net and all other vms requiring routed internet access from sys-net > 
sys-firewall

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
qvm-start sys-net

OR

qvm-start sys-firewall

Expected or desired behavior:
sys-net starts and gives internet access to all other vms dependent upon it

Actual behavior:
it takes about 5 seconds for the top right corner of the screen to register 
"Domain sys-net is starting", but then I am met with a 60 second long wait 
time, during which the sys-net vm while attempting to start goes from 400MB 
down to 384MB, until the terminal returns a response saying "Cannot connect to 
qrexec agent for 60 seconds, see /var/log/xen/console/guest-sys-net.log for 
details".
