Command Line
Deep Freeze can be rapidly installed on multiple computers over a network using the Silent Install
feature. Deep Freeze can also be uninstalled in the same manner. Any deployment utility that
allows execution of a command line on a remote computer can implement Silent Install or
Uninstall. After the Silent Install or Uninstall is complete, the system restarts immediately.
The command line has the following options:
Example Command Line:
DFStd.exe /Install /Freeze=C /PW=password
In the above example, only the C: drive is Frozen. Any other drives on the computer are Thawed. If
the computer only has a C: drive, the [/Freeze] switch can be omitted. A password (password) is
created. All existing ThawSpaces are retained. After executing the command, Deep Freeze installs
and the computer restarts Frozen.
