Hello,

I'm working at location "A" which has it's own network and related to "A" are locations "B" and "C".
"B" and "C" are both part of their own separate networks.
"B" and "C" are both getting a bunch of new laptops.
These laptops are going to be in heavy use by different people, which means they need to be secured so that even if someone somehow uninstalls a whole load of important files i can easily and preferably remotely set them to how they were when first handed out.
What is the most viable option i have?


I've looked at some software called "deepfreeze" but i'm having second thoughts on it seeing as the both locations they're going out to aren't on the same network as "A".
So far I've thought about creating an image which has deep freeze on it and putting that on all of the laptops. (I know nothing about creating an image)

Any and all suggestions are welcome.
Thank you for reading,

Pritesh Hirani.

You have a lot of work to do, especially since you don't know how to create an image, start here http://www.instructables.com/id/Preparing-a-Hardware-Independent-Windows-7-Image/?ALLSTEPS

Deepfreeze and such programs work pretty well, they prevent all changes on the computer, soon as you reboot, everything goes back to how it was. That means to install any new programs or save files to the system you need to unlock it first, do the changes, then enable it again.
