Versión 8.56.220.5542 (miércoles, 20 de marzo de 2019)

Nuevas mejoras

• Windows Server: Letra de unidad de caché de Windows Update
  Se ha resuelto el problema de almacenamiento en caché de Windows Update en Windows 10 asignando una letra de unidad a la carpeta de caché. La actualización de la estación de trabajo Deep Freeze asignará automáticamente la letra de unidad B:\ a la carpeta de caché, que se puede actualizar en la configuración de Deep Freeze. La letra de almacenamiento en caché no se mostrará en el Explorador de Windows.
• Windows Server: Compatibilidad con la actualización de características
  Ahora la tarea Windows Update admite la instalación de las actualizaciones de características para que los clientes puedan actualizar fácilmente de la compilación 1709 a la 1809, por ejemplo. Deep Freeze respetará las opciones avanzadas de Windows Update que puedan aplazar dichas actualizaciones.
• Mejoras de recuperación
  Mejoras en el proceso de recuperación del mantenimiento de Deep Freeze cuando las actualizaciones de Windows no están marcadas correctamente, que reducen la cantidad y duración de los reinicios en modo Thawed necesarios para devolver el equipo al modo Frozen.
• Exclusión de una unidad del sistema de la protección de Deep Freeze
  Los clientes ahora pueden establecer de forma opcional una unidad del sistema en modo Thawed.
• Compatibilidad integral con unidades NVMe
  Deep Freeze ahora es compatible con unidades NVMe que usan tecnología de formato avanzado (4K) (a menuda, usada en equipos Mac).
• Compatibilidad con unidades iSCSI
  Deep Freeze es ahora compatible con unidades iSCSI.
