What's more, users can be confident that the computer software is protected from their mistakes, while IT departments can be confident that only licensed software is running. Although fully protected by PC Bodyguard each user has full, unrestricted access to all the PC's normal functionality, and can make any changes they wish during their working session. But none of these changes is permanent. Restoring the original desktop setting at any time is as simple as switching the PC off and on again. Permanent changes can only be made by authorised personnel using the password-accessed 'Unprotected Mode'.
Teachers have all too often become PC troubleshooters.
And it's not the occasional total crash that eats into productive teaching time. With PC Bodyguard protection in place, the time and money spent repairing computers, whether by external technicians or by teachers themselves, can be better spent on teaching or system development. PC Bodyguard Lab Edition has been thoroughly tested throughout the secondary school network in East Ayrshire, Scotland. Before installation teachers reckoned they were spending up to a day every month resetting desktops. Now not only can they spend more time teaching, but also PC downtime has been significantly reduced.
