An error messages like the one above pops up right after I shut down whonix-ws-16-dvm based disposable qube. It’s annoying and may scare some novice users.
Reproducing
- Be on update Qubes 4.1
- start whonix-ws-16-based qube
- Shut it down
If the timing is right it will show that error message. If it doesn’t just try again.
