Reboot Restore Rx - How to: Update Baseline & Recover from Sub-Console
Posted by , Last modified by Jester Santos on 23 Oct 2015

Reboot Restore Rx is a freeware utility. This software was created in response to the many requests submitted to us by small school systems and libraries that have limited budgets who were looking for a replacement for Microsoft's SteadyState and other commercially available products.

This is a knowledge base article that explains the best practices and specifically, how to 1. Set your baseline 2. Update your baseline 3. Recover from the sub-console.  

1.

 

Software installed, you got your baseline!

As soon as the software is installed and the machine has rebooted, you got your baseline! Reboot Restore Rx will restore your PC back to that system state on every reboot.

In Reboot Restore Rx you have another great capability. You can restore your system to a baseline even if Windows crashed and you can't get into it.

We do this from the sub-console:
