The Disk Protection feature allows you to reset your MultiPoint Server system to a specified state each time you restart the system. Using Disk Protection, users can temporarily make changes to the MultiPoint Server system, and then those changes are discarded when the server is restarted. Examples of changes that will be discarded when the server is restarted include personalizing a user’s profile, saving files, changing settings, or installing applications.

To enable Disk Protection

  1. In MultiPoint Manager, click the Home tab, and then, under *<computer name>*Tasks, click Enable Disk Protection.

  2. Review the information, and then click OK.

    After the system restarts, any changes made to the system, including new applications that are installed, will be discarded on each subsequent restart.
