![]() ![]() I also know that the installation of Deep Freeze disables Windows Fast Startup in Windows 8.1. For all Windows 8.1 PCs in the child domain, we allow Deep Freeze to control Windows Update. We use Group Policy to control Windows Updates on Windows 7 PCs in both domain, and Windows 8.1 PCs in the parent domain. ![]() ![]() It is a Windows 8.1 PC in our child domain. That system has been rock solid for 3 days with multiple shutdowns, and restarts. On one of the PCs that was experiencing the slow boot, I installed the latest version of Faronics Deep Freeze. We have looked through Windows Event Logs, SCCM logs, used Windows Performance Recorder/Analyser, and so far, nothing has been able to explain this. Turned on the next morning and once again had the long boot issue. During the night, the PC shut down via a scheduled task. Downgrading that one to 4.9.219 fixed the slow boot for several reboots and all seemed well. On another system, it was running SCEP v4.10. Upgrading that system allowed the PC to boot quickly for a number of restarts. The version that we were currently installing for newly imaged PCs was 4.9.219. On one system with the latest definitions, the client was running 4.9.218. At first we thought it might be a simple matter of determining Endpoint Protection client and/or definition version. Others have been imaged within the past year using SCCM, again, with a post install task to install the Endpoint Protection client. Some of the systems reporting slow boot times were imaged with Dell Kace with an Endpoint Protection client post install task. ![]() We just began using SCCM for imaging a year ago, but we were using SCCM for just Endpoint Protection for the past 5 years. We are running System Center Configuration Manager Current Branch 1602 in our organization. We have just started our migration to Windows 10 and none of our pilot users nor any of us here in IT running Windows 10 have been affected. We are running mainly Windows 8.1, though there have been reports of this from some of those who are still running Windows 7. For the past few weeks we have been getting a trickle of reports regarding slow system boot times. ![]()
