Hello
I moved to Qubes 4 and my script to start various VMs and programs, which worked fine with V3.2, now just executes only the first command and stops there. Why?

Script
qvm-start untrusted
wmctrl -s 1
qvm-run untrusted firefox
qvm-run untrusted nautilus
qvm-start personal
.... and many others commands

It stops with:
sh script.sh
Running 'firefox' on untrusted

I get nothing more than that. Why does not it start also nautilus and many other stuff as it did with Qubes 3.2?

best
Franz

As you've discovered in 4.0 qvm-run blocks on the program being run.
You need to use:
qvm-run untrusted firefox &
etc
