There is a nice Template manager tool - look in the System Menu for "manage
Templates for qubes"
You can select multiple qubes and switch to a new template with one
press of a button.

I am not sure, it seems so: 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/#switching


You should see the docs on upgrading:

Is this done by open the "Qube Settings" in the AppVm's and under 
Template choose the new template, or what is needed to connect the old 
AppVM's to the new/updated template ?

No, this is AppVM data, template updates should not touch AppVM data.


2)  Will all the AppVM's that is connected with the
Fedora-template also be updated and still work after the update ?


No, you need to change all AppVMs to the new template. However,
they should work.


3)  Will the installed applications in the Fedora-template have
to be reinstalled afterwards ?


It depends on what update route you go.

There is the (what I find to be easier) way of downloading the
package in dom0. But it means that you will end up with a
completely clean template.

Or you can do an in-place update, it will preserve all your
applications and changes.


4)  If not, then why not let Qubes Update the Fedora-template to
a new version integer when the user accept it to do so, or at
least create a script file that a user can execute instead of
having to execute all the commands manually ?


I would like to see that too.

Is this done by open the "Qube Settings" in the AppVm's and under Template 
choose the new template, or what is needed to connect the old AppVM's to

[qubes-users] Questions regarding updating a Fedora-template to a new version integer

['M' via qubes-users]

I have the following questions regarding updating a Fedora-template to a 
new version integer:

1)  Will the files in the desktop, documents, downloads and QubesIncoming 
folder be deleted when updating it ?

2)  Will all the AppVM's that is connected with the Fedora-template also be 
updated and still work after the update ?

3)  Will the installed applications in the Fedora-template have to be 
reinstalled afterwards ?

4)  If not, then why not let Qubes Update the Fedora-template to a new 
version integer when the user accept it to do so, or at least create a 
script file that a user can execute instead of having to execute all the 
commands manually ?
