1.
Using Deep Unfreezer is quite easy. To check out the current state of
Deep Freeze click on the 'Load' button. The position of the radio buttons
will change to the current state.


2.
To save the state click the 'Save' button.


3.
Depending on the version of Deep Freeze, the program may need to read
some information from the service file. Deep Unfreezer tries to find the file automatically,
if it doesn't succeed the user must specify the file location manually.

4.
For the latest versions of Deep Freeze (5.50 and above) for Windows
2K/XP the following rules apply:
-
Deep Unfreezer must be run under an account with
debug privileges. By default Deep Freeze disables this privilege. Deep
Unfreezer tries to enable this privilege automatically, if it fails the
program will show the message 'WARNING: Not running from service'. To
manually
enable this privilege you have two options: follow the steps described on Tutorial
4 or using the Administrator account use the 'at' command to run the
program with the System account. The 'at' command allows you to run
programs at a given time, so if it's 12:00 and the file is in C:\ you
can run Deep Unfreezer with the following command: at 12:01
/interactive "C:\DeepUnfreezer1.6.exe". When the clock changes to 12:01 the system will run Deep Unfreezer with debug privileges.
-
Deep Unfreezer can change the state as long as the
service (DF5Serv.exe) had started and is running or if the service had
never started at all. If the service started and for some reason it stopped, Deep
Unfreezer wont be able to change the state. In the case the service had
never been started Deep Unfreezer must be run from the System account
and you will be able to change the state as long as you
don't close Deep Unfreezer. Once the program is closed, the only way to
change to state again is to reboot the computer. Deep Unfreezer tries to
run from the System account automatically, if it fails the program will
show the message 'WARNING: Not running from service'. To manually run
Deep Unfreezer from the System account use the 'at' command described
above.
Questions:
1. ¿Where's the program source code?
At this moment I'm not planning to publish the source
code.
2. ¿Can you add the option to change Deep Freeze
password?
At this moment I'm not planning to add that functionality,
so don't ask for it.
3. When I try to change the state of Deep Freeze
on Windows 2K/XP I get the error 'cannot open process. Enough privileges?'.
To change the state Deep Unfreezer needs debug
privileges. Read the manual.
4. When I start Deep Unfreezer on Windows 2K/XP I get the
message 'WARNING: Not running from service'.
Deep Unfreezer tries to automatically run from the
System account with debug privileges. This message means the program failed
to do so. If you are trying to change the state of Deep Freeze 5.50 or above
you have to add this functionalities manualy. Read the manual.
5. I have other questions. ¿What can I do?
Post them on the forum. Don't forget to include the
program log, what version of Deep Freeze you are using and what version of
Windows. The messages sent to my email about Deep Unfreezer will be completely
ignored.
