Hi Mark,
I was wondering if your Steadier State tool can help me...
I'm looking for a tool that can take a snapshot of the current state of the OS and I can let the user work on the computer (restart it/shutdown it) and when the computer is booted again it keeps the original snapshot untouched but all the changes are saved.

The idea behind this is to have the ability to give a user a temporary computer and when he returns is just wipe it to the state I have saved.

The question is can this tool do such a thing? If not, could you please recommend of one?

Thank you,

Michael.

Did you see this? http://www.steadierstate.com/

or read this? http://www.steadierstate.com/

Check it out, this may be just you need for your test PC or student.

Announcing... Steadier State!
Virtual machine snapshots are so great -- a "Giant Undo" for an entire system, rolling back gigabytes of changes in just a minute or two. Wouldn't it be great to have that for PHYSICAL machines? Folks running learning labs, public-access PCs in libraries, and kiosks are just three applications that come to mind.

Microsoft used to give away a tool like that called SteadyState but they don't any more, and never DID build it for Windows 7. I've been tinkering with this for a year and some in my spare time and I think it's about ready to release.

I call it "Steadier State."<g>
