Desktop Snapshots

Use of Desktop Snapshots

Snapshots allows you to 'backup' your virtual machine and restore it conveniently.

For example, if you are undertaking an upgrade which risks breaking your system, you can stop your virtual machine and take a snapshot beforehand.

If the upgrade is successful the snapshot can be deleted and if not, you can restore the previous state of the machine.

Snapshots are available for all types of DaDesktop, ie Fresh Start, Trainer, Participant and Standalone machines can all use snapshots.

Auto Course recording (Trainer's Desktop)

Course recordings of the Trainer's Desktop, or the Training Room (if this is used during the Course) are made automatically during the course.

Press the red-button again to stop the recording.

Recordings can be removed by the Trainer as required. Troubleshooting recordings are also made automatically when the course is being prepared, but are only used for troubleshooting course set-ups, if required.
