(The DisposableVM Application Launcher shortcut used for starting programs runs a very similar command to the one above.)
#### Opening a link in a DisposableVM based on a non-default DVM Template from a qube ####
Suppose that the default DVM Template for your `email` qube has no networking (e.g., so that untrusted attachments can't phone home).
However, sometimes you want to open email links in DisposableVMs.
Obviously, you can't use the default DVM Template, since it has no networking, so you need to be able to specify a different DVM Template.
You can do that with this command from the `email` qube (as long as your RPC policies allow it):
~~~
$ qvm-open-in-vm @dispvm:online-dvm-template https://www.qubes-os.org
~~~
This will create a new DisposableVM based on `online-dvm-template`, open the default web browser in that DisposableVM, and navigate to `https://www.qubes-os.org`.
### Customizing DisposableVMs ###
You can change the template used to generate the DisposableVMs, and change settings used in the DisposableVM savefile.
