新功能
- 快速添加 ThawSpace（解冻空间）
重新安装 Deep Freeze 不再需要添加新的 ThawSpace（解冻空间）。ThawSpace（解冻空间）可以在下次解冻重启后随时进行配置 - 删除 ThawSpace（解冻空间）
Console 工具栏中新增 Delete ThawSpace（删除解冻空间）操作（还可以 Format ThawSpace（格式化解冻空间））。此外，还添加了 DFC 开关/deletethawspace。 - 解冻提醒
您现在可以指定解冻后的工作站多长时间变成红色。新增 Thawed For（解冻时长）一栏，可以用来显示工作站解冻过程的时长。 - 联合调度器任务
管理员经常连续执行预定的控制台任务，如 (1) Wake-on-LAN（远端唤醒）、(2) Send Message（发送消息）、(3) Run Windows Update（运行 Windows 更新）和 (4) Shutdown（关机）。Combination Task（联合任务）可以让您创建单个调度器任务，将其与最多 5 个调度器任务联合，这样，即便发生意外您也不必更改多个任务。 - 客户端更新及更多调度器任务
管理员现在可以设定升级 Deep Freeze 客户端的时间，便于客户第一时间使用新版本。控制台调度器中还添加了其他任务（包括 Format ThawSpace（格式化解冻空间）、Push & Launch（推送并启动）和 Remote Launch（远程启动）），管理员可以更灵活的选用。 - 保存 Windows 事件日志
在 Advanced（高级）选项卡下新增了一个复选框，勾选后即可保存 Windows Event（Windows 事件）日志。Deep Freeze 将分配 100MB 以保存 Application（应用程序）、System（系统）、Security（安全性）及 Hardware（硬件）事件日志。 - 尝试本地唤醒
在工作站任务中勾选新增的”Attempt to wake-up locally（尝试本地唤醒）”复选框，在预定的工作站任务开始前自动尝试从待机状态本地唤醒工作站。需要兼容硬件以从待机状态中唤醒。 - 空闲任务改善
Deep Freeze 现在可以关闭空闲电脑，无需等待键盘和鼠标的第一次活动，不然，电脑可能全天保持开机。Idle Time Restart（空闲时间重启）需要执行一次键盘和鼠标活动，才能防止电脑在无任务执行时不停重启。 - 配置工作流增强
单击 OK（确定）后，您不再需要自己进行 Deep Freeze 配置。只需在界面底部指定 Configuration Name（配置名称）即可。管理员还可以将配置导出成安装程序或种子，这样初次使用的用户也可以了解后续步骤。 - 新增控制台栏
除了”Thawed For（解冻时长）”栏，我们还增加了”ThawSpace Free（自由解冻空间）”栏，以显示可用的解冻空间及自由解冻空间的大小。操作系统版本号现在显示在操作系统栏。 - 记住文本输入
Enterprise Console 现在显示最近的 10 个输入记录，可用于发送信息、推送并启动、远程启动，这样管理员就无需重复输入相同信息或命令。 - 升级通知
接下来，Deep Freeze v8.5 之后的版本将可以接受控制台内发出的新版本升级通知。回顾本发行说明，下载最新安装程序并自动更新您的控制台。 - 新增 DFC 开关
/deletethawspace
/formatthawspace
/shutdown parameter，以执行 /endtask 命令 - 扩大 Windows 更新缓存
无需重新安装，Windows 更新缓存自动增加至 10GB。 - Console 支持弃用
该版本弃用了 Enterprise Console 对 Windows XP 和 Server 2003 的支持。

Version 8.35.270.5190 (October 26, 2016)
New Enhancements
- Support for Windows 10 Anniversary Update.
- Improved Console performance.
- Enhancements to prevent longer system startup on Advanced Format (AF) 4k sector hard drives (up to 2X faster boot time).
- Allow fully qualified Proxy Server Name in Deep Freeze console settings.
- Windows Update Enhancements
To address changes in the way Anniversary Update handles automatic Windows Updates, Deep Freeze will take extra measures to ensure that the Windows Updates will not be triggered outside of the scheduled Windows Update Task on Windows 10 machines. This is achieved by disabling the Windows Update service.
Fixes for Windows 10 Anniversary Edition
17579 Resolved issues with random BSOD. The Windows 10 Anniversary Update introduced additional drivers into the system that interfered with the ability of our drivers to properly respond to some requests to our StorageSpace or ThawSpaces.

18199 Resolved issues where system shutdowns were prevented.
17893 Resolved issues where Windows Updates failed for some cumulative update which may require more space and a larger caching space than the 5GB that Deep Freeze allocated.
