Thawspace; Permanent Software Installations, Changes, Or Removals - FARONICS DEEP FREEZE ENTERPRISE 6 Manual

ThawSpace

ThawSpace is a virtual partition on a workstation that can be used to store programs, save files, or make
permanent changes. All files stored in the ThawSpace are saved after a restart, even if the workstation
is Frozen.
ThawSpace is only available if it was set to be created in the Deep Freeze Configuration
Administrator.
Any existing ThawSpace is deleted during an uninstall if any of the following apply:
• the option to retain existing ThawSpace was not checked in the Configuration
Administrator
• the ThawSpace was not created with Deep Freeze Professional Version 5 or later
• the ThawSpace is on a Windows 95/98/Me workstation
Permanent Software Installations, Changes, or Removals
Workstations must be Thawed for any permanent changes to take effect. Installation of software often
requires one or more restarts to complete the installation.
It is recommended that the Boot Control tab is used to allow the workstation to restart with Deep
Freeze Thawed until installations or changes are finished.
