To enable or disable the Write Filter, see
Microsoft Windows 10 IoT Enterprise
Administrators Guide
at
Dell support site.
CAUTION: Please follow proper write filter and Windows Page File usage instructions at all times. Such instructions include making
sure that the write filter is enabled during regular use and is disabled only temporarily by an administrator when required
for image upgrades, applying security patches, registry changes and application installation. The write filter should be re-enabled
as soon as such tasks are completed. Such instructions further include never enabling the Windows Page File feature during
regular use of the thin client. Any operation of a Dell Wyse Windows Embedded Thin Client with the write filter turned off
during regular use and/or with the Windows Page file enabled will prematurely wear out your Flash/SSD storage, decrease performance
and decrease the lifespan of the product. Dell is not responsible for, and will not, warrant, support, repair or replace any
thin client device or component that fails to operate properly due to a failure to follow these instructions.
When you disable the Write Filter from the system tray, a caution message is displayed.
Figure 1. UWF caution message
After the Write Filter is disabled, a caution message is displayed during every reboot to notify that the client is used
in Write Filter disable state.
