Returnil Personal Edition

[Alis_Klar]

Has anyone tried this out? Free for educational use. Could see a use for this in school.

Returnil

This software creates a virtual temporary system in memory that is reset every time you reboot thus loosing any changes to the system config. Could it kill deepfreeze? Caveat:I haven't tried this out yet.

there is a new version of this available

Returnil Virtual System 2008 Personal Edition Freeware download and review - run a temporary clone of your o/s from SnapFiles

i have tried it, it works really well, it freezes the pc in the current state, you need to do a few mouse clicks to stop it showing ballons to users etc, but i think this is excellent, especially as it is free.
It is an alternative to deep freeze, or reborn cards.
This is ideal for a public computer, but you'll still have to disable it manually, and then run updates, and re-enable.
it is also ideal for anyone with kids at home, or who want to try out some software, as all changes are undone at reboot.
