Customization Code Initialization
Open the Configuration Administrator by selecting the following path from the Start menu:
Start > Programs > Faronics > Deep Freeze Professional > Deep Freeze Administrator
e Deep Freeze Professional Customization window appears the first time the Configuration
Administrator is opened.
Deep Freeze requires the administrator to enter a Customization Code to initialize the Configuration
Administrator. e code must be at least eight characters long and may consist of any combination of
alpha-numeric characters.
is code is not a password that can be used to access Deep Freeze. It is a unique identifier that
completely encrypts the Configuration Administrator, the workstation install program, the One Time
Password Generation System, and Deep Freeze Command Line Control
.
e Customization Code ensures that no other administrators can access or control a workstation.
Multiple Deep Freeze administrators controlling the same group of workstations should use a matching
Customization Code.
e Customization Code must be recorded and guarded with care. Faronics is unable
to recover a lost or forgotten Customization Code!
Customization Code Re-Initialization
If another administrator wants to create installation files with the same Configuration Administrator
using a different Customization Code, the DFInit5.exe program should be run. is resets the existing
Customization Code for the Configuration Administrator. Enter a new Customization Code. Click OK
for the new Customization Code to become active.
Once a new Customization Code has been assigned, the Configuration Administrator
will no longer work with previously configured installations. To work with previous
installations, use the DFInit5.exe program to reset the Customization Code back to its
original settings.
