Installing Deep Freeze Workstation Installation Files and Work-

station Seed Files

The Deep Freeze workstation installation files and workstation Seed files are the workstation level 

Deep Freeze components that must be installed on all workstations protected by Deep Freeze. 

You do not need to install both the workstation installation file and the Workstation Seed. The 

workstation installation file contains a full copy of the Workstation Seed and is installed when you 

run the full workstation install. The Workstation Seed should only be installed if you want to use 

the Deep Freeze Enterprise Console to push the workstation installation file to workstations rather 

than using ZENworks.

To Install the Workstation Installation or Seed Files:

1.

Copy the Seed or workstation installation file to a share on the network that the workstation 

can access.

2.

Create a new application object named 

Deep Freeze WKS

 in the NDS tree by accepting all 

the default options.

3.

Right-click on the Application Object and select 

Properties

.

4.

Select 

Run Options

 > 

Application

 and type the full path to the workstation installation file; for 

example, 

\\Earth\SYS\PUBLIC\Deep Freeze\DF6Wks.exe.

 You can use any path valid on 

the workstation, including mapped drives.
