After following the install instructions I get this error. No idea why. Can you help?

Also seeing this issue on a fresh install of R4.1rc2.

It is also attempting to use the Fedora 32 template, rather than the installed Fedora 34 template.

Same issue. Looks like qubes-windows-tools is not available for 4.1 yet. Will try to build manually and report back soon. Link for reference -> https://github.com/tabit-pro/qubes-windows-tools-cross

Get the latest QWT from here : https://github.com/tabit-pro/qubes-windows-tools-cross/releases Manually copy the rpm to dom0 and install it, you're done !

This works, but the package seems to be incomplete, it's missing the "move user profiles" part. With the iso from this image, that part is disabled by default and leads to a "please insert disk" issue when its enabled.

So the question where to find a working version of qubes-windows-tools remains.

I built the current version of the package from https://github.com/tabit-pro/qubes-windows-tools-cross, and that one seems to work perfectly (only tested windows 7 for now). So, let's hope there will be a new release there soon, and maybe integration into qubes repositories.

sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-dom0-current-testing qubes-windows-tools as mentioned in #52

Qubes OS R4.1 does appear to have Qubes Windows Tools now: https://qubes-mirror.igniterefereeing.com.au/repo/yum/r4.1/current/dom0/fc32/rpm/

This is one of the Qubes OS mirrors. Doing a simple CTRL + F for "qubes-windows-tools" yields results.
