How do I update from the evaluation version of Deep Freeze to the licensed version?

Standard Version:

The evaluation version of Deep Freeze must first be uninstalled. This will involve disabling the software if it has not already expired and uninstalling it using the installation file used to install the evaluation version of Deep Freeze. After the evaluation software is uninstalled, you can re-install using the full version of Deep Freeze Standard.

Enterprise Version:

1. Install the licensed version of Deep Freeze using the same Customization Code used to install the evaluation version
2. In the Configuration Administrator of the licensed version of Deep Freeze, create a blank (default settings) workstation installation file and a Console using the same port number configured in the evaluation deployments.
3. Open the Console and select the workstations to be updated; these workstations can be in either a Frozen or Thawed state.
4. Right-click, and select Update Deep Freeze from the contextual menu. Alternatively, click the Update icon in the console toolbar.
5. A standard Open file window appears. Select the blank workstation file and click Open.
6. The selected workstations update to the licensed version of Deep Freeze, but retain all settings from the evaluation version.
