let me make changes to this livepc
Submitted by Stephan on June 13, 2007 - 4:45pm.
could anyone tell me why i cant turn off the "let me make changes to this livepc" tag.
its greyed out along with "let me use this live pc offline " and email a friend.
i cannot change thse options.
my livepc is a installed windows XP and its not downloaded or uploaded from/to a server.
its locally stored and run on my external usb harddrive.
id like to have it revered to the state is was when i boot up every day.
that way what ever i experiment / test on thagt windows . no damage is done since when i reboot ,its like it never happened.
so why cant i change those options .. and what needs to be done to get it right
tnx Stephan
LivePCs that are created
LivePCs that are created locally are not sharable until it is hosted on an http server so the "send to friend" is not applicable. Local LivePCs are always available to run offline.
A subscribed LivePC that is set to offline will guarantee that the bits are not evicted from the cache (once downloaded into the cache).
Here are several links for these features in our latest docs.

additional info to your
Publishing the LivePC and subscribing to it will allow you to have rejuvenation.
If publishing the LivePC is NOT an option, here is a workaround:
basically copy/backup your LivePC in it's golden state and then restore it afterward.
This will provide some pathing info: LivePC Instances
