Show PCs and freeze software

PCs that reset themselves at every start (Deep Freeze, Reboot Restore and similar).

Many venues use software that puts the disk back as it was at every start. That also puts back an old licence, so BeatAtlas cannot keep its check-ins.

The best fix: tell the freeze software to keep these places as they change (exclude them from the freeze):

  • %LOCALAPPDATA%\BeatAtlas\licence
  • HKCU\Software\ArcSeven\BeatAtlas (in the registry)
  • C:\ProgramData\ArcSeven

Or: thaw the PC, activate BeatAtlas (or renew by file), then freeze it again. Do this again before each licence runs out.

A frozen PC that does neither keeps working for one licence period, and then BeatAtlas asks for the key again.
