FILEnetworks Blog: Deep Freeze Standard 6.30.020.1818

Deep Freeze from Faronics software is an interesting application. We’ve posted about this app before but it’s worth a mention again (besides this is a newer build). With Deep Freeze, you can essentially bulletproof your system from unwanted changes. That is, the changes you make to your computer’s software configuration will not be permanent with this software installed. No more junk registry entries, threats from viruses and you are even protected from accidental changes to settings. This could come in extremely handy for computers in internet cafes, libraries, universities and other public institutions. Also, if you are at home and want to experiment with ‘odd’ software without risking a system reinstall, this app will be useful.

Developer Description

Faronics Deep Freeze helps eliminate workstation damage and downtime by making computer configurations indestructible. Once Deep Freeze is installed on a workstation, any changes made to the computer—regardless of whether they are accidental or malicious—are never permanent. Deep Freeze provides immediate immunity from many of the problems that plague computers today—inevitable configuration drift, accidental system misconfiguration, malicious software activity, and incidental system degradation.

Deep Freeze ensures computers are absolutely bulletproof, even when users have full access to system software and settings. Users get to enjoy a pristine and unrestricted computing experience, while IT personnel are freed from tedious helpdesk requests, constant system maintenance, and continuous configuration drift.
