The Deep Freeze sounds more user friendly.
Right away the article reminded me of 'hardened' OS's I've heard people have owned before that allow no changes. I've seen a crypto program mess up an external before so I don't keep it attached all the time. I back up just new files using that backup program whenever I attach an external HDD. I check news on it because once a few years back it even got struck by someone/ something.) or other cleaning program.
DEEP FREEZE SOFTWARE COMPETITORS TRIAL
Often I'll uninstall CCleaner when the trial runs out or before. Then, if I add unique programs, once in awhile I'll turn it back on if I'm sure there is no malware and I've cleaned up cache data wherever possible with CCleaner (I download the professional version with 30 day trial and after running it turn off all 'helpful' settings as it wants to run on its own and such, which is not ok with me. Then, personally, I turn off (uncheck) the system image part after the first time. I set it to do "User" data and any unique folders I might have directly on c: and system image. There are open source programs out there too but as long as they keep the program working, under backup and what they call Windows 7 backup (the old version and I think slightly more comprehensive than the Win 10 default backup) I'll keep using it. I just make sure to create a system image using the tools in Windows.
DEEP FREEZE SOFTWARE COMPETITORS FULL
Full backups are, of course, still necessary from time to time to protect against hard drive failure. There was a free Home version until last year which can still be found there was also a free XP version which is no longer available.Įxpert users like Larry tend to rely on frequent backups, but in practice I find that few people have the knowledge or motivation to make these, so a program like Rollback can offer a simpler solution, as snapshots can be made with two clicks in a few seconds. They can reverse the effects of malware (which often wipes out System Restore points) and has a pre-boot console which can easily be accessed if any changes have made a system unbootable. System Restore is meant to have a similar effect, but the Rollback snapshots are comprehensive and, in my experience, much more reliable. It's Horizon Rollback: there is a version for public computers which wipes out all changes on a reboot, but I use one in which I take a snapshot (generally before installing software) which allows me to "rollback" all changes if I wish. Like Darryl, I try a lot of programs, and have for the last 15 years used a program with similarities to Deep Freeze to get myself out of trouble when things go wrong.
