1. Launch a dom0 terminal.
Click the Qubes App Launcher (blue/grey "Q") → Open the Terminal Emulator (Xfce Terminal)

2. Upgrade Qubes dom0.

This step is mandatory. ^[1] ^[2]

sudo qubes-dom0-update --show-output --console

3. Done.

The dom0 upgrade has been completed.

↑
Upgrading Qubes dom0 is required to ensure:
- The version file /srv/formulas/base/virtual-machines-formula/qvm/whonix.jinja contains the current version number of Kicksecure and is up to date.
- A recent version of Qubes repository definition files.
- Qubes salt.
- qubes-core-admin-addon-whonix.
- qubes-mgmt-salt-dom0-virtual-machines, ensuring it is installed and up to date.
Older, similar references:
↑ Using --show-output --console is optional but recommended due to a Qubes upstream bug: qubes-dom0-update shows No updates available if the network is down / qubes-dom0-update fails to detect if repositories are unreachable / network is down.
