Reboot and Restore is a technology designed for use in the computer industry. It helps workstations remain fully functional and configured optimally.

Function

Upon restaring a computer equipped with this technology, it reconfigures itself automatically based on a pre-defined disk image. Therefore, no matter what any user does during his or her session, including erasing files, installing software, downloading programs or changing registry settings, none of those harmful changes can have a permanent effect.

Designed to drastically reduce computer maintenance, Reboot and Restore is best implemented on public computers, (libraries, schools, etc) or in other situations where a computer may be misused or damaged either intentionally by a malicious user or accidentally, either due to a curious user "exploring" or an unfamiliar user making a mistake.
