Preparing the Thin Client Operating System
Uninstalling the IGEL system from the thin client will void your entitlement to software support from IGEL. After uninstalling the IGEL system you can only re-install it locally from a snapshot on a USB storage device.
Log on to the thin client as administrator:
Select Start > Log Off, holding down the [Shift] key
Hold down the [Shift] key until the logon window is shown.
Log on as the Administrator user with the password administrator. In a production system, the administrator password should be changed after the first logon.
Disable the File Based Write Filter (FBWF) by unchecking it in the IGEL Setup under System > File Based Write Filter
Reboot the device. The FBWF status is shown as disabled (red icon) in the taskbar:
Log on to the device as administrator (see above). Click Start Menu > Control Panel > Programs and Features > IGEL System > Uninstall. The device reboots.
Log on to the device as administrator (see above).
Run the batch file C:\IGEL\bin\igel_sysprep.bat. This executes the Windows Sysprep mechanism. The device boots into a minimal Linux system and is ready to capture the operating system image in the next step.
