Restore Your PC Easily


ToolWiz Time Freeze is a free and incredibly easy-to-use application. All you have to do is to install the app (after you've set up your operating system and the programs that you want to keep permanently), then check the box marked Enable Time Freeze automatically when Windows starts and your set. Additional options allow you choose specific folders that won't be frozen (the files added in them won't be automatically deleted) and to protect the application with a password, thus making sure that your settings don't get changed by someone without proper authorization. ToolWiz Time Freeze works on any Windows version newer than XP (including Windows 10).

Best Tool to Restore Your System on Reboot(Windows)

I'm pretty sure that I'm not the only one who hates it when other people mess with his computer, change the settings, install new applications, etc. and I'm just talking about the one in my house. I don't even want to imagine how irritating that would be if I had to take care of multiple public computers, e.g. in a classroom, library, Internet cafe, etc. The good news is that there are a few solutions to help ensure that no one can mess up the PCs in your care. I'm talking about applications that will automatically restore your computer to a certain state each time you reboot it.
I know what you're thinking, in theory you can create a system restore point and use it anytime something goes wrong, but that's not as effective as you would think. For starters, system restore doesn't delete files from certain folders so you will still have junk to clean up. Furthermore, most existing malware makes the system restore one of its first targets, either disabling or corrupting the files. Lastly, why waste time and do it manually when these tools can do it automatically?

Deep Freeze Standard (FullVersion)




If you haven't yet heard of Deep Freeze it means that your computer never fell into the wrong hands. This highly popular tool can either be incredibly useful or amazingly annoying, but both outcomes testify to its effectiveness. The software works like this: after installing Windows and the applications which you want to keep on the PC simply install Deep Freeze and choose the drives you want to protect. After this is done, any installed programs and downloaded or created files will automatically disappear each time you reboot the computer. This means that every time you restart, your system will be exactly as you want it to be.
Of course, if you actually need to install a new application that you want to keep on the PC you can deactivate Deep Freeze, but you will need to enter your password in order to do so. Furthermore, you can also create a ThawSpace which works like a box, where users without admin privileges can save the files that they actually want to keep in case cloud storage isn't an option.

SlimKat is the name for ‘SlimRom’s Android KitKat based custom ROM’s and if you don’t know what SlimRom is, its actually something like CyanogenMod but with many unique features built in to it.

This SlimKat ROM is based on the CyanogenMod 11 for the Ascend Y300 and the development of SlimKat for Y300 started in January this year so the developer ‘chil360′ on Modaco forums has gone through multiple phases of development as of right now. Even though there are few quirks exists for some people as reported on the Modaco thread, we can call this ROM an stable one.

SlimKat is based on Android 4.4.2 of course and you need TWRP or CWM to flash this ROM on your Y300. If your Y300 is still running stock firmware and you don’t know how to do these stuff, I have covered all the details including bootloder unlocks,rooting and custom recoveries which you can find right here – http://huaweinews.com/?s=ascend+y300

This ROM development is happening over at Modaco forums and if you are a newbie, our advice is to read the whole forum thread because you can find answers to many of your questions and possible issues. We cant really write about shortcomings of this ROM because the development is happening constantly so even if you know what you are doing, its better to read at least the last pages of the below link.
