After installing qubes-windows-tools on a Windows 10 VM, I used it for a while, everything worked. Now when I go to launch it again, instead of having simply "qubes settings" and "start" like before, I have all the windows apps to start. If I click on one of them, the VM starts but does not show any screen, it just shows up as started. There's also not a "start" option anymore

I opened a bug and one person related having the same problem

https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/5739

anyone knows how to solve it?

If the Windows GUI-window doesn't show up, you can try execute the following command in the dom0 terminal: qvm-features <windows_qube> gui 1 .

Write the name of the domain (for example "Win10"), instead of <windows_qube>

I don't know about the rest.

Else you may try to setup the Win10 HVM the same way I have done - see my post here: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/qubes-users/78DgmWxZf80/L8cJA2BUAwAJ
