I played around with that a while ago on a 2008 R2 server and had little quirks we didn't have before. To be honest it may have been something I did because I did not have much time to sit and hash it out. I understand from others that it is supposed to work well but it has to be setup properly and the expectations need to be set such as how it operates with multiple users versus the standard 1 user at a time deep freeze is usually for. I have a virtual environment and I take snapshots to allow me to go back in time to the last update. I just wanted to test Deep Freeze before I virtualized one of the RDP servers but then work happened and it had to get pushed off.
Deep Freeze should work fine with the Terminal Services environment. You will have to go with the Server Edition of the software which will allow you to freeze the Server OS hosting the RDP sessions and then all the sessions connecting to the RDP server will be eventually frozen as well.
Try To Run Deepfreeze Installer again, it should then say you need to uninstall your current deepfreeze, proceed to uninstallation. A computer restart would be prompted afterwards which you should do.
Got the shiny new SCCM deployment going and am about to start the learning curve with this. Do I need a GPO pointing computers to the new SCCM/WSUS server, or does SCCM take care of that without one? Also in Deepfreeze there is a part of the nightly task run that has a WSUS server pointer in it that I will need to update. I assume I keep this.
This article describes how to troubleshoot freeze issues on Windows-based computers and servers. It also provides methods for collecting data that will help administrators or software developers diagnose, identify, and fix these issues.
Note that as the standard three properties (buf.byteLength, buf.byteOffset and buf.buffer) are read-only (as are those of an ArrayBuffer or SharedArrayBuffer), there is no reason for attempting to freeze these properties.
To make an object immutable, recursively freeze each non-primitive property (deep freeze). Use the pattern on a case-by-case basis based on your design when you know the object contains no cycles in the reference graph, otherwise an endless loop will be triggered. An enhancement to deepFreeze() would be to have an internal function that receives a path (e.g. an Array) argument so you can suppress calling deepFreeze() recursively when an object is in the process of being made immutable. You still run a risk of freezing an object that shouldn't be frozen, such as window.

i am working with services using C#, and for some stuff i need to get deepfreeze state of the station (frozen or thawed), for this found this on Faronic's documentation , when i use the following command in command prompt : C:\WINDOWS\syswow64\DFC.exe get /ISFROZEN it works and returns "THAWED." or "FROZEN." so i decided in my C# program to run a command prompt and redirect the Standard output to get the result of the command into a string variable , but it has not worked, i tried with any other commands and it works , i do not understand where is the problem.there is the DFC.exe download link if it does not exists ( complete the captcha and click to download)It is my third day on it so i need help .. thank's for everyone , there is sample code :
One thing we have in our setup because we have a large percentage of systems that keep their configuration pretty static (and we use user profiles on a network server) is a product called Deep Freeze; you configure the system to a state you want it in and then "freeze" it, and any changes made to the system are wiped at reboot. Delete the Windows directory, reboot, restored like nothing happened. Very cathartic to do that sometimes. BUT it means having to schedule updates (due to needing to thaw it) and we don't run antivirus on it due to update issues (plus you don't want it to update every time it reboots and says "I'm out of date!" Yes, systems can get infected, but a reboot will clear it up. We once purged an infection by essentially rebooting our building. Worked surprisingly well for a Star Trek plotline.
