Creating Workstation Install Program and Workstation Seed

Deep Freeze Enterprise User Guide
To create customized Deep Freeze installation program files with all of the options that were
configured in the previous sections, click the Create button in the Configuration Administrator
toolbar and select Create Workstation Install Program.
This file can then be used to install Deep Freeze on computers using:
• Attended Install (install based on user input)
• Silent Install system (install that does not inform user of progress or provide messages during
installation)
• Target Install (install program created by the Enterprise Console for deployment on target
computers)
To create a Workstation Seed, click the Create button in the Configuration Administrator toolbar
and select Create Workstation Seed. The Workstation Seed is a lightweight program that allows
administrators to remotely install and control computers from the Enterprise Console. The
Workstation Seed can be installed as part of a master image and then deployed via imaging
software. All computers on the LAN with the Workstation Seed installed are displayed in the
Enterprise Console. The default file name for this program is DFWksSeed.exe.
All files are saved to Deep Freeze Enterprise/Install Programs folder by default. A different
location can be chosen and the file name can be changed if required. It is recommended that a
naming convention is used if you are creating multiple customized installation files.
