Format ThawSpace
Deep Freeze Enterprise Console provides the ability to format all the ThawSpaces remotely on
managed workstations.
Complete the following steps to format ThawSpaces:
1. Select one or multiple workstations.
2. Right-click and select Format ThawSpace. Alternatively, you can click the Format ThawSpace
icon in the toolbar.

If the Network options in the new configuration have changed, the computer(s)
may lose communication with the existing Enterprise Console. If communication
with the computers is lost, check the Network settings on the updated computers
to ensure that the port numbers and/or IP address of the Console have not been
changed.
Changes to passwords take effect immediately. All other changes take effect after
each computer is restarted. ThawSpace and/or Frozen Drives cannot be changed
through updating the configuration file.
The Format ThawSpace command deletes all data on ThawSpaces. The data
cannot be recovered once it is deleted. Backup important files before formatting
the ThawSpace.
