hello , i hope this is the right thread for this(deep freeze software). 1st off , im running a windows 7 on my computer and have 3 partitions ( C,D,E) . Drive C (frozen) is for the system software so i have to freeze it to ensure safety. Drive D(frozen) is for offline games, i frozen it just in case someone might accidentally delete some games. now for Drive E(my main concern) for online games, i didn't froze it so that if ever a game has an update(especially STEAM/DOTA 2)i don't have to unfreeze it just for it to be save. what i want to know is that ,

will the unfrozen partition will be fine? is my hard disk going to be ok? no errors? will it have any corruptions? or any negative effects on my hard disk? will the computer starts to slow down a bit or so?

please answer :D have a nice day :D

Not sure what your question is, if it's already setup this way and working why would it not be fine? What is the question about hard disk and errors? You need some details about what you are asking exactly. Are you worried about something messing up the hard drive with your setup? No more risk than doing anything else to the drive during use.

No way of knowing, your hard drive can fail in the next 10 minutes or run for the next 10 years.

Not sure why you have a games partition setup for deep freeze, if you play and save a game, next time you reboot you will lose that saved game file change since the deep freeze will prevent it from being saved.

I get what you're trying to do here I think you're better off using snapshot software. I use Rollback RX because it does what Deep Freeze does but it won't interfere with your online games and still provide you with protection if anything goes wrong. I started using it because Nvidia uses it to test driver updates so I thought "why not" they have a paid and free version.
