Unfreeze your system by holding SHIFT and DOUBLE CLICKING the deep freeze icon in your system tray, then entering your password and choosing the unfreeze option. After rebooting, run the installer you used to install deep freeze and choose the uninstall button.
Your machine will reboot, and Deep Freeze will be uninstalled.
Deep Freeze is installed on my computer. I would like to uninstall it. How is this done?
Disable Deep Freeze before uninstalling it.
To disable Deep Freeze:
To uninstall:
Deep Freeze is uninstalled and your computer is rebooted.
If this has not resolved your Issue, you may check some inks to Other Information:
How to Uninstall Deep Freeze for Windows 2000/XP/Vista without the password.
Note: Without a complete uninstallation you may not be able to reinstall Deep Freeze on your system.
What we are going to do is edit the registry and delete the startup references to Deep Freeze. This will prevent the Deep Freeze driver from starting up the next time you boot. (c:\windows\system32\drivers\deepfrz.sys)
1. First we need a way to edit the registry. The way to do this depends on your situation. If your computer is thawed you can simply use Regedit. If your computer is frozen or if it doesn't boot you'll need to find another way. Here are some alternatives:
If you have a multiboot computer with another copy of Windows 2K/XP you can boot from there. Or, you can physically mount the disk on another computer that uses Windows 2K/XP.
You will probably use a tool that lets you boot and edit the registry. A good example of this is PE Builder that lets you build a Windows PE CD and boot Windows from there. Or use Bart's, http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/ or Winternals ERD Commander. There are several, including some USB memory sticks capable of booting like a CD. The goal here is to boot separately from your hard drive and access it while it is "asleep".
2. If your computer is thawed run Regedit. If it's not thawed follow one of the alternatives described above, and run Regedit (or Regedt32 on Windows 2K).
3. On the Find dialog box type UpperFilters and check only the Values checkbox. Then click Find Next.
4. The program will find a value with the name UpperFilters. Open this value and if there's a line with the name of the Deep Freeze driver (DeepFrz or DepFrzLo) delete it including the return, leaving the rest of the lines intact. Also, if you are using ThawSpace and you want to get rid of it delete that line too (ThwSpace), if you want to keep the ThawSpace leave it there. Press F3 to find the next match and repeat the operation until you have fixed all the UpperFilters values inside the HKLM\MySystem key.
5. Navigate to HKLM\MySystem\Select and check the value with the name Default. It has the number of the control set key that the system will use when booted. If it is 1 the control set is ControlSet001, if it is 2 the control set is ControlSet002, and so on. We'll assume the control set is ControlSet001 but you should use the one specified by the value Default.
6. Now go to HKLM\MySystem\ControlSet001\Services and delete the keys with the name of the Deep Freeze drivers (DeepFrz or DepFrzLo and DepFrzHi). Also, if you decided to get rid of the ThawSpace delete the key with the name of the ThawSpace driver (ThwSpace).
7. That's it. Now reboot and Deep Freeze will not load.
QUESTION: What if the BIOS settings prevent me from booting from CD or USB? Answer: Deep Freeze prevents you from decrypting the BIOS password, but it does not prevent removing it, if you have the right tool! Most of the BIOS hacking programs will not work to remove the BIOS password on a Deep Freeze protected computer, but CmosPwd by Christophe Grenier does.
You'll need to know how to use a command line and install the driver. Yes, it uses a driver to remove the BIOS password. But it works, even on Deep Freeze protected computers. Use CmosPwd to remove the BIOS password and reset the default BIOS settings. Then you'll be able to boot from CD or USB and edit your computer's registry and remove the DeepFrz, DepFrzLo, and DepFrzHi references which start Deep Freeze.
Now here is a little known secret: Faronics (the makers of Deep Freeze) uses a special driver to remove broken or malicious Deep Freeze installations. They do not have any backdoor passwords, so they use a special driver to remove a Deep Freeze installation where the password is not known or that someone is having trouble with. Will they send it to you, or even admit to you that they have it? I don't know. But, even if you do have it, you will still have to boot separately from the hard drive and replace the existing Deep Freeze driver with the special one and reboot. And after that, you need to use a Deep Freeze installation file to fully uninstall Deep Freeze (it will be thawed when you boot up with the special driver). If you want to re-install Deep Freeze, you'll have to first delete the special driver too.
Only a few people have this driver. It is the only solution Faronics has for those who need to remove Deep Freeze without the password. And, like I said, you will have to be able to boot from CD or USB and access the NTFS hard drive. If the boot-up order is locked (hard drive first and only) in BIOS settings, use CmosPwd to reset BIOS and boot order. Then you can boot from CD or USB.
Booting from CD or USB and removing the registry references works also, but then you should uninstall Deep Freeze with an installation file once you are able to boot thawed.
If you are dealing with a trial version of Deep Freeze, just forward the BIOS date past 60 days and then restart.
If anyone is wondering if Deep Freeze has ever been hacked, the answer is "yes" it has, several times over the years. Most of the time these were weaknesses that Faronics was able to quickly fix or prevent. However, there was one hacker that really, REALLY gave them headaches. His name was Emiiano Scavuzzo from Argentina. He was really good at low level programming and used OllyDbg to come up with about five versions of his "Deep Unfreezer" which gave Faronics their greatest challenge to date. Deep Unfreezer now only works on older versions of Deep Freeze.
Faronics is doing very, very well right now (as of 2008). They sold Apple Computer their Mac version of Deep Freeze, which, if you know how to look for it in the Applications folder on a Mac, is used in all the Apple Stores on both their desktops and their laptops. So, if you're ever in a Mac store playing around with PhotoBooth or whatever, and the computer settings are all messed up, just restart the Mac and thank Deep Freeze.
For other reference of this question. You can visit:
http://www.out-of-warranty.com/how-to-uninstall-faronics-deep-freeze-in-three-different-ways/
To disable a deep freeze without the password it is possible to just unplug the freezer from its electrical source. Unplugging the freezer for a period of time might also allow for the resetting of the password when it is plugged back in.
Deepfreeze does NOT place any restrictions on a machine, so whatever
You want to do, whether it's downloading mp3's or downloading and
Installing ICQ or browser add-ons or WHATEVER, deepfreeze does not
Prevent it. What matters much more is how you are logged in: as User,
Or Power User, or Administrator. True, you'll have to install/download
your stuff every time you sit down at the computer, but hey! you CAN
do so. That's the beauty of deepfreeze: it places no restrictions on
the machine. Take a look at M$ TechNet:
Default Access Control Settings
http://www.Microsoft.com/technet/treeview/...ity/secdefs.asp
The entire white paper is very helpful in understanding the difference
Between Users, Power Users, and Administrators. NOT understanding this
issue causes more problems on Windows 2000 than all other problems put
together. Example: you installed winzip and don't understand why the
*uck it won't work. Answer: you were not logged in as administrator
when you installed it.
And, along these lines, you can ask your teacher/computer lab admin to
promote you to Power User. Cuz Power Users have access to HKLM
(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE)in the registry, and can manipulate a lot more on
the system (read the paper). For example, let's say there is a nasty
content filtering program such as CyberPatrol preventing you from
accessing 2600 or other web sites. Such a program probably starts
automatically from a key in HKLM under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Simply delete the key and then restart the computer, and the program
will not be running.
So... try to become a Power user. If you explain to your teacher that
being just a User is a real pain in the butt and that you NEED to be
PowerUser in order to do things, he/she MIGHT make you one. You don't
know until you try.
Now, about hacking DeepFreeze. DeepFreeze was developed with sneaky
little hackers like you, intent on *ucking up computers, in the
FOREFRONT of the developer's minds. The developers of DeepFreeze knew
and know how to think like hackers. They were in high-school once,
too!! And, if that were not enough, they also know how to program at a
very low-level (we're talking LOW, LOW level!!) in order to protect
the computer. Do you know how to hack/load/unload kernel-mode device
drivers? NO?! Do you know how to program in assembly REALLY well??
NO?! Do you understand encryption and how it functions in a program?
NO?! Do you know how to best pack your program so that it is strongly
resistant to reverse engineering? NO?? You mean you don't even know
what "pack" means? JEEZ! I don't think you're gonna hack DeepFreeze
then, O Miserable One!!!
On Windows 95/98/Me:
DeepFreeze is a VxD (Virtual Device Driver) located in
c:\windows\system\iosubsys\persifrz.vxdThe only hope for most
hackers of "hacking" DeepFreeze is to boot from a boot-disk and delete
this file. All the other filez in c:\progra~1\hypert~1\deepfr~1 are
just other program filez. The most important file to delete is the
actual DeepFreeze driver, persifrz.vxd. It IS true though, that if you
delete the other filez in the DeepFreeze folder FROM A BOOT DISK that
DeepFreeze will no longer load. I'm just giving you the best and
easiest way. Delete persifrz.vxd and DeepFreeze is deader than a
doorknob. AND it's only one file. persifrz.vxd IS DeepFreeze.
Cant' boot to any drive except c:\? And BIOS setup is
password-protected? Oh well, you're not gonna hack DeepFreeze. And
DeepFreeze prevents, BY DESIGN, BIOS password-crackers from working.
On Windows 2000/XP DeepFreeze consists of several important filez:
There are 2 drivers and 1 service (I'll let you figure out the paths):
DepFrzLo.sys (kernel driver)
DepFrzHi.sys (file system driver)
dfserv.exe (service)
frzstate.exe (password dialog)
persis00.sys (password file and "on/off switch")
Probably you will need NTFSDOSPRO to boot up and mount an NTFS drive.
And if you're elite, you won't have any problem getting that from
someone or finding it, or carding it from an internet cafe...
If you do card it from a cafe though, don't use a Yahoo or hotmail
e-mail address. And make sure you know the CVV on the card. Use
something different like boxfrog.com or rock.com. It's available from
http://www.sysinternals.com and costs $300. True: there is a free
LINUX boot-disk which also mounts NTFS drives, but it's not nearly as
good. One last thing about NTFSDOSPRO. There is no free support AND it
is kinda tricky creating and using the NTFSDOSPRO boot disk. You have
to first boot with a regular boot disk, then put in your NTFSDOSPRO
boot disk to mount the NTFS drive. You'll see what I mean, it's not
very user-friendly and little explanation is given on how to really go
through with the entire operation.
Using NTFSDOSPRO, if you replace persis00.sys with your own
persis00.sys containing your own password, then you can thaw
deepfreeze using your own password. You see, persis00.sys contains the
password and the on/off switch which the driver checks to see if it
should start the computer in thawed mode or frozen mode. This is
preferable to deleting the entire DeepFreeze program on Windows
2000/XP with a boot disk. All pertinent encryption seems to be
contained in this one file. And, a persis00.sys from a totally
different DeepFreeze doesn't seem to matter (as in one from a trial
version). Post here if you discover differently.
Before attempting to delete the drivers on Windows 2000 with a boot
disk though, try it at home first. Because the computer may not start
up. In other words, it may be necessary to delete certain keys in the
registry as well, in order for the computer to not "crash" before it
even starts! Use InCtrl5 to monitor your own installation of
DeepFreeze 2000/XP. Available here:
http://common.ziffdavisinternet.com/downlo...027/inctrl5.zip
It will tell you each and every file and registry key installed by the
program. There may be serious problems if you don't delete certain
important "pointers" and "references" to the DeepFreeze driver on the
Windows 2000 platform. I don't know. Try it and see. Maybe not.
Now, here are TWO methods of hacking DeepFreeze you probably haven't
thought of:
#1 IF your school/lab is using the trial version of DeepFreeze (and
this is more common than you think: schools are really hurting for
money nowadays!!), and IF you can access BIOS setup, you can forward
the date and DeepFreeze will no longer work (you'll see the blinking
red X flashing on the DeepFreeze system-tray icon.) Then simply
uninstall DeepFreeze. By the way, there are two keys in the registry
under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
which must be deleted in order to be able to re-install a fresh trial
version of DeepFreeze. One starts with Rebar, and I'll let you figure
out the other one. It may be only the Rebar that is necessary to
delete.
#2 Find out which computer your computer lab administrator has the
DeepFreeze Administrator program installed on. At his desk? In his
office? Most of the time now, administrators are taking advantage of
DeepFreeze's OTP (One-Time Password) feature. In order to thaw
DeepFreeze, they go to the computer which needs to be "thawed" and
shift+double-click on the DeepFreeze icon in the system tray, which
brings up the password dialog box (frzstate.exe). They then jot down
the token which appears in the window's title bar. They then go back
to THEIR computer which has the DeepFreeze Administrator program, open
up DFAdmin, and input the token in order to generate a one-time
password. This OTP will then work, one time only, to restart the
computer in thawed mode. After restarting a second time, the computer
is frozen once again, automatically. Now, IF you can get your hands on
a DeepFreeze Administrator program, maybe by purchasing it from
HyperTechnologies... then, all you need to do is copy one file from
your administrator's DFAdmin program, take it home, place it in your
DFAdmin program, and you can generate OTP's for your school's
computers. JUST ONE FILE: dfadmin.exe is necessary to copy and
replace, and it is small enough to save to a floppy or e-mail to
yourself. You see, when DeepFreeze Administrator is first set up, the
administrator chooses a phrase or master password which is used to
make the encryption unique for his/her network. And this encryption is
contained totally in dfadmin.exe You might want to think of a way to
get your administrator to thaw the computer, and then watch which
computer he goes to to obtain the OTP. Are you with me?
#3 IF your administrator is naive enough to be using permanent
passwords for DeepFreeze, then you can use something called KeyKatch.
Go to http://www.keykatch.com This puppy works great. Just be sure to
install it in the keyboard port, NOT the mouse port -- an easy
mistake. Regular software-based keyloggers, etc., won't work because
they will not be there when the computer is restarted. Think about it:
the administrator is never going to enter the password and then NOT
restart the computer! And when he/she restarts the computer, of
course, the keylogger would be gone. UNLESS your school's computers
have two drives, and one is not frozen, and you can configure your
keylogger to save the log file to the unfrozen drive. Of course,
you'll have to re-install the keylogger program to read your log file.
As you can see, except for #1 above, there is no EASY way to hack
DeepFreeze. Cuz whatever you do, you're not really doing, it all goes
away when you restart the computer. I hope this little post helps you
to understand more about how it might be done though, IF a person is
DETERMINED to beat it. Of course, being THAT determined might get you
in serious trouble at your school, too. So, remember that, first and
foremost.
Of course, you might approach your computer science teacher/network
administrator and tell him or her that you know how to hack DeepFreeze
and you would like his/her permission to hack it (he'll KNOW you
can't). Then, once permission is secured, get access somehow to the
computer with DFAdministrator on it and copy dfadmin.exe If you have
permission to hack DeepFreeze, you might even be able to get help from
a janitor or the assistant principle or something in order to get
physical access to the computer. You'll have to have your own copy of
DFAdmin first, and then you'll have to be able to log on to the
computer with DFAdmin on it. If winlogon greets you and you can't log
on, you'll need NTFSDOSPRO to copy dfadmin.exe using a boot disk. The
only other possibility would be to somehow e-mail the administrator a
Trojan which would allow you to access his computer remotely and copy
dfadmin.exe. (SubSeven, BackOrifice, etc.) I think that's how the FBI
would do it! he-he...

salam, mohon bantuannya password deep freeze 6.30.020.1818 thanks, anthony
there is no default password for deep freeze, just hold on shift key and double click on the icon of deep freeze at the bottom of task-bar and then the pop up menu of deep freeze tell you to enter password, just press Enter or OK, and then you able to put your new password.
please help HOW do i uninstall the deep freeze v7. icon isn't show..
It all depends on the temperature of the air that it is in contact with, the air has to be at least 0 degrees Celsius so you cannot work out how quickly it will freeze without knowing the air temperature ;)
In a Deep Freeze system, a password can be changed by accessing the user's main profile and navigating to "Personal Information", from which you can input your existing password and your desired new password.
Yes, you can freeze carrots without blanching first.
