Deep Unfreezer Manual

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:

  1. 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.

  2. 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.
