Control the Amount of Disk Space Used by System Protection

Hi Sudesh,

You can always control the amount of disk space where you install your protection, just like using Deep Freeze program you choose either drives you want to protection or all drives you want to protect. In my internet cafe i used to protect all my drives so i can sure there will be no virus attacking my systems.

If you where using it on your personal computer then much better to choose drives where you want to be protected so that anytime you want to save files then you can save right away, if you freeze all your drive then it hassle in your part because every time you want to save files, then you need to restart your computer before you can save it.

Even if you have a Deep Freeze file, it is necessary to have an virus scanner, because Deep Freeze program alone can't guarantee a safety on your system.

Thanks,

Tony Stevenson,
