well Friend I like your tutorial and you waste time for us i love you sooo much i really impressed keepit up
Thanks a lot for your efford and your clear explanations.
One question if you do not mind. What do you think of open source “CloneZilla” as a tool to clone? I have been using it and it seems quite interesting.
And also, what is your opinion about programs like “DeepFreeze” o “Shadow Defender” that allows you to freezes a computer, in order not to be changed for the users? Do you think they really work? can they be a kind of “antivirus” because they “undo” changes in the computer?
Thank in advance

1. I’ve heard of CloneZilla, but haven’t used it myself. The basic rull applies that if it works for you, then it works fine…
2. “DeepFreeze” and such are very good for Lab type computers that you almost never modify. You always boot back to the place where you put it in DeepFreeze. For normal computers it would suck though because literally ANY modifications you make would disappear every time you reboot.
Thanks for your answer.
Keep in contact and only a few videos more for me. I am really learning thanks to you
