You need to install the gvfs package in the template you are using for your 
AppVM.

It's not a standard package installed by default because it relies on many 
other packages. Do a search in your flavor repository (fedora,debian,etc) for 
the package and install it in your template, and then restart your AppVM.

But this is not an AppVM or a template, I think. I am seeing this message from 
Dom0 environment.

Troubleshooting Steps:
a) Boot Qubes 4 and enter password to start login session
b) Open Qubes menu in top panel
c) Open System Tools, File Manager Settings
d) Open Advanced tab

The window title is "[Dom0] File Manager Preferences".

Here is the message under a title "Missing dependencies" and inside a blue box:

It looks like gvfs is not available.
Important features ... will not work.

It seems like this must be a problem I must fix.


No. It is recommended to avoid using the GUI file manager in dom0.

Should the default install omit the GUI file manager in dom0?  Having it
and telling people not to use it is rather strange.

Yes: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2458


OK, so I will ignore this error.

There is a lot to delearn with a move to Qubes (:
