Simple to use: Just Reboot or Log-off and Restore

One of the most troublesome and recurring tasks for an IT technician is to restore a PC back to a pristine working condition, quickly and easily... Prior to the concept of Drive Vaccine, many administrators of public access workstations were faced with the daunting task of formatting hard drives and reinstalling the OS and software, every time a PC became inoperable - A time consuming and expensive task for fixing everyday "micro-disasters". Drive Vaccine PC Restore Plus works with Windows Vista


Drive Vaccine PC Restore Plus integrates Reboot-and-Restore, a simple technology designed to keep computers fully functional and optimally configured. In addition to restoring on reboot, Drive Vaccine PC Restore Plus can Restore on User Log-Off and can also maintain a safe "Freeze Space" for file and data storage.

Drive Vaccines PC Restore on Reboot or Log-off drastically reduces computer maintenance, and is widely used to protect public access computers, (ie. library public computers, school PC Labs, etc) or shared computing environments where a workstation could be misused or damaged either intentionally by a malicious user or accidentally by a learning student.

Keep PC's Virus and Spyware free

Viruses and spy ware are the most common threats, and new infections slip through the first lines of defense almost daily. In addition, users can also cause unknowing damage by tampering with configuration settings, by installing botched software - damaging the original configuration to a point of no return.

Set Acceptable User Policies

Put in force AUP's by guaranteeing that only approved applications are installed. When protected, Drive Vaccine will not allow configuration changes or installation of any applications to remain on the workstations. This, in effect, blocks the installation of most illegal or unauthorized software.

Enhance The Computing Experience

Drive Vaccine ensures workstation performance is at optimal levels by removing website cookies, spyware, temp files viruses and unnecessary plug-ins; which cause system bottlenecks. Any infections to a "immunized" system are instantly eradicated - workstations are reverted back to their original configuration on every restart or user log-off. Because Drive Vaccine does not restrict access and is transparent to users - Users feel as though they have complete control of the machine; enhancing the end user's computing experience.

Freeze Space - Persistent Storage Space

Administrators, can create a "Freeze space" - a virtual drive space in order to save files for permanent storage. This enables computer users to save files and folders for permanent storage, keeping them exempt from the restoration process. This integrated Freeze Space (virtual-drive) has been implemented in our latest release of Drive Vaccine PC Restore Plus Version 9 edition.
