Hello,
Sometimes my users are away on trips and the Windows OS on their laptop gets corrupted and needs to be reloaded.
Could the ' preserve winpe partition ' partition be used to reload the laptop remotely, or some other way?
Method to reload laptop when out of the office?

Ooh, yes, I'm interested in something like this as well.
Or is the obvious answer the local image backup? All fine and dandy, but images are large and SSDs are small.

Hi,
Is the problem more of a software or more of a hardware issue?
Do you want to re-deploy Windows to the client?
If so we may are working on something that could ease your pain.
Kind regards
Niko
what do you mean by "gets corrupted"? Windows totally broken? Or just some applications?ttblum hat geschrieben:Sometimes my users are away on trips and the Windows OS on their laptop gets corrupted and needs to be reloaded.

This is just the partition that usually houses the WinPE during the installation.ttblum hat geschrieben:Could the ' preserve winpe partition ' partition be used to reload the laptop remotely, or some other way?

Yes, I meant a way to re-deploy Windows when the user is away from the LAN.
Good to hear there may be a solution in the future.

As our solutions rely on the client being able to boot through PXE this may be harder than it sounds.ttblum hat geschrieben:Yes, I meant a way to re-deploy Windows when the user is away from the LAN.
Usually PXE will not leave an local network.
