My adventures in re-creating whonix-workstation-17-dvm

[FranklyFlawless]

@Qubie

Recently I transfered by mistake files into disposable whonix-workstation instead of its disposable vm, so I’ve decided to consider it potentially compromised and to create a new one and delete the old one.

Okay, instead of reading your wall of text and/or answering your various questions, I will provide you steps to do for next time.

1. If applicable, remove whonix-workstation-17-dvm as a disposable template in anon-whonix.
2. Delete whonix-workstatation-17-dvm using Qubes Manager.
3. In dom0 for Qubes R4.2.0, run:

sudo qubesctl state.sls qvm.whonix-workstation-dvm

4. If applicable, in anon-whonix’s settings, change the disposable template back to whonix-workstation-17-dvm.

All of this can be done in under a minute.
