Some people take computer security matter seriously. These are the kind of people who would install Deep Freeze to protect their computer. The convenience of the application is that it will restore the computer to the original pre-set configuration upon reboot. So any change that happens between reboots, including virus and malware infections, can be eliminated easily.
The problem is, removing the application when you don’t need it anymore is a real pain in the neck. You can’t just uninstall it. The trouble is multiplied when you forgot the password that protects the app.
This measurement is understandable as security apps’ job is to make it difficult for anyone to compromise the computer. But if you have to remove Deep Freeze, here are ways to do that.
Part 1: How to Uninstall without Password Deep Freeze
The real problem comes when you need to uninstall Deep Freeze without knowing or forgetting the password because you are just forgetful or maybe you inherited the Deep-Freeze-installed computer from someone else. It’s still possible to uninstall the application, but you need to jump through more hoops to do so.
The easiest way to get rid of Deep Freeze without a password is to format the hard drive where the application is installed and clean-install your Windows. But this method will also wipe every other data on the drive clean.
If you don’t want to take such extreme measure and you still want to keep the other data, you can try this following method.
First, restart the computer and enter the BIOS setup environment. You can do so by pressing F2, F10, or DEL button during restarting. There are differences between computers on how to enter BIOS, but it's usually written down on the screen at the beginning of restart process.
On the BIOS screen, change the computer date to several years ahead or behind the current date. This will make Deep Freeze think that the machine is not running anymore.
Then save the BIOS settings and restart the computer. During this restart, enter the Debugging Mode. The shortcut key should be rapid F8 keystrokes. But again, please consult the screen instruction on how to do it.
When the Windows logo appears, press Ctrl + Alt + Del to open Task Manager.
On the Task Manager, open Processes tab and find FrzState2K.exe. Select that process and click the End Process button.
With the application inactive, you could go and delete the folder where Deep Freeze is located. Try either of these locations: C:Program FilesFaronics or C:Program Files(x86)Faronics.
The last step is to delete the saved registry of Deep Freeze. You can use regedit to do it. Open Start - Run, type in regedit and hit Enter.
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARE then find and delete the entire Farconis folder.
Restart your computer to complete the whole process, and you are free from Deep Freeze.
Part 2: How to Uninstall Deep Freeze with Password
Now let look at the method of doing that when you do have the password. Since you can’t uninstall Deep Freeze when it’s active, you must disable it first.
First, hover your mouse to the System Tray on the lower right corner of your computer screen and press the Shift button while double clicking on the Deep Freeze icon. The application window will appear, and it will ask for your password.
Fill in your password and click OK (or hit Enter button).
Then you will arrive at Deep Freeze’s Preferences interface. Choose Boot Thawed inside the Status on Next Boot pane, then click Apply and Reboot.
Your computer will be rebooted, and you will see the “X” sign on the Deep Freeze icon in the System Tray. That is the indication that the application is currently disabled and you can safely uninstall it.
Open the installation file called DFStd.exe. You should have this file from when your first download the app. If you don’t have it handy, you could re-download the file from here.
With the installation file running, choose Uninstall and continue with the process. Your computer will be restarted once more, and you can see the Deep Freeze is no more.
That’s all for how to remove Deep Freeze with or without password on Windows 10/8.1/8/7. And if you have problem to recover lost Windows login password, here we recommend Windows Password Key for your reference.

Deep Freeze 7
tl;dr - DeepFreeze is still buggy and one-time passwords can be easily generated. Download link: https://www.mediafire.com/?mtpaf3quaifwm3u
What was changed in DeepFreeze version 8.31?
Well, two things.
Deep Freeze Standard 8
First, they made an attempt to stop Meltdown from generating correct One Time Passwords (OTP). While doing so, they added a new vulnerability - similar to the one that Meltdown used to obtain password for Deep Freeze Standard version 7.x and older.
Second, they added a licensing mechanism that requires each workstation to be activated. While doing so, they created a new local privilege escalation vulnerability.

What is this new (old) vulnerability?
The problem is in data exchange between driver and the UI component. It's done using DeviceIoControl calls and data are encrypted using changing XOR key. However, the overall communication protocol is badly designed.
So, let's start with the Deep Freeze Standard versions 5.x to 7.x. Communication between UI (frzstate2k.exe) and the driver goes like this:
Obviously, it's easy to extract password from the information provided by driver. That's what Meltdown originally did.
Faronics fixed that in Deep Freeze Standard v8.10:
Makes total sense, right? I looked at the communication protocol and concluded that the issue is fixed. End of story.
Deep Freeze Enterprise is a different story:
This communication makes sense. But all the information necessary to generate OTP was present in dfserv.exe and other executables. So, Meltdown didn't even have to communicate with the driver.
But in the latest version (v8.31) the information to generate OTP is not present in dfserv.exe or other executables. However, Faronics added a new feature to the driver:
Where have I seen this design before? smile So, I updated Meltdown to obtain information necessary for OTP generation from DeepFreeze driver. Easy as pie.
Local privilege escalation
It's so good, it deserves a separate blog post.
What do you think about Faronics?
I get this question a lot lately. People who see Meltdown ask that. IT managers who bought DeepFreeze ask that. And even some reverser friends have asked me that. But I'd rather not say anything and let the facts speak for themselves.
- 2013-Mar-06 - Meltdown is published.
- 2014-Mar-31 - Faronics closes the vulnerability in DeepFreeze Standard v8.10. No mention of any security issues in the changelog. No security bulletins published. This vulnerability had existed since very early versions of DeepFreeze and it suddenly got fixed. To me, it indicates that Faronics was aware of Meltdown at this moment of time.
- 2014-Jun-24 - Changes in DeepFreeze Enterprise v8.11 break existing versions of Meltdown. Release notes say 'Resolved a security issue that could result in the user accessing Deep Freeze without authorization.' No security bulletins published.
- 2015-May-11 - User reported that Meltdown wasn't working anymore. It took me few hours to add that new round of 'extra secure' xor encryption.
- 2015-Dec-31 - Changes in DeepFreeze Enterprise 8.31 break existing versions of Meltdown. Changelog says 'Secured One-Time Password functionality from potential vulnerability.' No security bulletins published. They introduce 2 new vulnerabilities in this version.
- 2016-Jan-12 - Meltdown is updated with another round of xor encryption and 2 new calls to DeviceIoControl API.
