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

The 

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

. The code must be at least eight characters long and may consist of any combination of 

alpha-numeric characters.
This  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

The 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.

The 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. This 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.
