# Deep Freeze Command Line Control (DFC.EXE)

Deep Freeze Command Line Control (DFC) offers network administrators increased flexibility in managing Deep Freeze computers. DFC works in combination with third-party enterprise management tools and/or central management solutions. This combination allows administrators to update computers on the fly and on demand.

{% hint style="info" %}
Using Deep Freeze Command Line will render the computers out of sync with the policy currently applied. To get the computers back in sync, reapply the policy.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

It is important to note that DFC is not a stand-alone application. DFC integrates seamlessly with any solution that can run script files, including standard run-once login scripts.

DFC commands require a password with command line rights. OTPs cannot be used.

List all commands by calling DFC without parameters.
