You can also update TemplateVMs individually.

The proxy is configured in qrexec policy on dom0: `/etc/qubes-rpc/policy/qubes.UpdatesProxy`.

Snap packages do not use the normal update channels for Debian and Fedora (apt and dnf) and are often installed as the user rather than as root. To support these in an AppVM you need to take the following steps:

If you want a desktop app to start automatically every time a qube starts you can create a link to it in the ~/.config/autostart directory of the **AppVM**. This might be useful for Qubes that you set to automatically start on boot or for Qubes that have a set of apps you typically use all day, such as a chat app.

3. Create the autostart directory:

```shell_session

4. Make a link to the desktop app file you'd like to start in the autostart directory. For example, the command below will link the Thunderbird app into the autostart directory:
```[user@example-AppVM ~]$ ln -s /usr/share/applications/mozilla-thunderbird.desktop ~/.config/autostart/mozilla-thunderbird.desktop```
```
[user@example-AppVM ~]$ ln -s /usr/share/applications/mozilla-thunderbird.desktop ~/.config/autostart/mozilla-thunderbird.desktop
```
Note that the app will autostart only when the AppVM starts. If you would like the AppVM to autostart, select the "Start qube automatically on boot" checkbox in the AppVM's Qube Settings.
