How much RAM do you have? Maybe there's a problem with that. Do you have anything in .xessession-errors in dom0?

It is about templates and/or standalone VMs restored from R3.2?

Rest assured, we have not forgotten about this issue, but the devs have been busy with the release of 4.0-rc5 and also have many other issues to attend to.

3.2 VMs did not have qubes.StartApp service. I haven't yet fully developed template upgrade procedure (right now it is mostly manual, involving manual key import, repository switch etc).
But you should be able to switch to 3.2-way appmenus, by adding appmenus-legacy feature to that StandaloneVM/TemplateVM. Just to clarify - is it the case? It shouldn't be if you restore 3.2 AppVM but use a template from 4.0.

This is a StandaloneVM.
