Win10 VM won't start properly after installing qubes windows tools

[lattice0]

Qubes OS version
4.0.1

Affected component(s) or functionality
StandaloneVM start

Brief summary
After installing qubes-windows-tools on a Windows 10 VM, I used it for a while, everything worked. Now when I go to launch it again, instead of having simply "qubes settings" and "start" like before, I have all the windows apps to start. If I click on one of them, the VM starts but does not show any screen, it just shows up as started. There's also not a "start" option anymore

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Install qubes-windows-tools
shutdown
try to start vm again

I did not use qvm-create-windows-qube, so it looks like it's totally qubes specific

@0rb677 somebody said to me in Reddit:

in dom0

qvm-features win10 gui 1

*win10 is the name of the machine

I don't know why it works but it works

I have no internet in win10 now. Do you?

Win 10 is not good idea. Seamless mode not working, no audio and QWT unmaintained now, no USB passthrouth.
Try win7.

This bug affects any Windows qube that doesn't have the Qubes GUI qvideo driver installed, including Windows 7, 8 and 10.

Although, it doesn't appear to be an issue on Windows 7 because it's the only desktop Windows OS that supports the qvideo driver. However, if you were to uncheck the installation of the Qubes GUI driver on the QWT installer in Windows 7, the same bug would emerge.

At first glance, this appears to be a bug in CheckGuiAgentPresence() of advertise-tools.c where it incorrectly detects and reports back to GuiVM/Dom0 that the Windows GUI agent is installed whether or not it actually is. However, further research is necessary to verify the root cause.
