Hi Lonnie,
I've used Deep Freeze for a few years now. I have not found a way to
allow updates on a frozen drive. I don't think it's possible. In the
past I have installed antivirus software on another partition and left
it thawed to allow updates.
You can have the login script unthaw a machine which will force it to
reboot. The next time the login script is ran it will freeze the
machine. You can run updates inbetween but it would be a pain.
DF has helped save time and effort in re-cloning machines. Someone
makes a change you just need to reboot.
