    This program is very unstable and buggy. And not secure. Not suitable for schools or internet cafés. Perhaps for Home use. But if it crashes, you better have a backup.

    Reboot Restore Rx makes it easy to maintain PC’s in small public access computing environments (classrooms, computer labs, kiosks, internet cafes, libraries, etc.). Every time you restart the PCs they will automatically reset to your predefined baseline setting.

    Comments about Reboot Restore Rx as an Alternative to Deep Freeze
    Comment summary: Reboot Restore Rx is praised for offering the same restore-on-reboot functionality as Deep Freeze but at no cost. Users highlight its effectiveness in schools, libraries, and for personal use, with specific appreciation for its free version. However, there is a concern about its security in public environments, as users can disable it during restarts. It remains a strong competitor to Deep Freeze, especially valued for being a gratis alternative.

    It does as the name implies. Restores PC on every reboot, just like the Deep Freeze.

    SmartShield allows administrators to ensure the ongoing integrity of their workstations without limiting usability. With SmartShield Protection enabled, all changes made to a workstation are removed with every restart. This makes unwanted system changes an impossibility.
