Use fog, to restore Windows 10 to a saved configuration
-
Hello,
Please, how to use fog, to restore Windows 10 Pro to a saved configuration, what i mean, is that anything added buys users, it’s gets wiped each night, like a snap on virtual machine? So that the machine restore to the configuration i ve configurated, and all the files, log, etc… get deleted.
Thank you in advance

No, FOG is not used for this. You want to look for a reset software like deep freeze.
I mean you can use FOG to deploy new images to your machine every night so the computers are installed from scratch. But there are better ways of doing this as I mentioned.
Windows 10 also has a reset thing.

No. There is no software that can both do deploy and reset (reset in its truest sense). Not even FOG
You can purchase Deep Freeze or search for an open source alternative. And use this software in conjuction with FOG. Place that program in your image and configure it. Capture and deploy with FOG.
Or, if you are so inclined, you can choose to deploy an image to the target pcs at the end of the day. This would be a fresh install of windows and too tedious in my opinion. Too much energy consumption.

What you want to achieve is getting into the realms of software like AppSense. May be worth a look but from experience I know that it ain’t cheap!
