When HORM is configured and enabled, the system creates a hibernation image that persists across reboots and power cycles. Because the system loads to a static safe state every boot, all disk volumes on the system must remain in a stat state and EWF must be enabled. When HORM is enabled, the system resume from hibernation on each boot instead of booting through the standard Windows startup process.
HORM has several benefits. The first is that since the system is always booting from a fixed, non-changeable hibernation image, this mitigates the risk of any virus or malware persisting between reboots or power cycles. Log data should be stored on removable media or via the network.
One great use case for HORM is a kiosk-type application where you need a highly reliable application that is not susceptible to malicious software and does not need to be changed frequently. Once EWF has been enabled see above , you then need to enable hibernation on your device.
Type the following in the command prompt as an administrator:. Figure 6. Command prompt output after HORM activation. Open any applications and start any processes that need to be running on the system when it resumes from hibernation.
FBWF can be used to protect an entire volume, but exclusions can be added to the file system and registry keys. This allows for protection of critical operating system directories while allowing data to be logged to disk as expected.
Due to the nature of FBWF, it has less overhead for deferred writes as you can protect only the directories and files that are critical to device operation. This added flexibility also opens up the opportunity to create less protection by creating exclusions to important parts of the disk.
Therefore, in the event of a power loss, the data logged to an FBWF-excluded directory is not lost because it was in an unprotected location.

These types of environments can lead to questionable power conditions and uncertain power loss conditions. Unlike our real-time operating systems, Windows is more susceptible to disk corruption when power is lost during operation.
This tutorial discusses best practices for improving the robustness on WES7 targets. You can access this API by: a. Right-click on the Project and add a touch panel target to your project: Figure 2. To view the EWF status of all volumes on your system, you can open up the command prompt as an administrator and type the following: ewfmgr -all This command returns the volume configuration for all volumes, or partitions, on your system.
Figure 4 illustrates an example output of this command: Figure 4. To work around this issue, you must disable UWF before you change the date and time. To do this, run uwfmgr. UWF is an optional component and is not enabled by default in Windows You must turn on UWF before you can configure it. You can choose where the overlay is stored RAM or disk , how much space is reserved, whether the overlay persists after a reboot.
To increase uptime, set up monitoring to check if your overlay is filling up. To learn more, see UWF Overlay location and size. A volume is a logical unit that represents an area of persistent storage to the file system that is used by the OS.
A volume can correspond to a single physical storage device, such as a hard disk, but volumes can also correspond to a single partition on a physical storage device with multiple partitions, or can span across multiple physical storage devices.
When you configure UWF to protect a volume, you can specify the volume by using either a drive letter or the volume device identifier. If you specify a volume using a drive letter, UWF uses loose binding to recognize the volume. By using loose binding, drive letters can be assigned to different volumes if the hardware or volume configuration changes. If you specify a volume using the volume device identifier, UWF uses tight binding to recognize the volume.
By using tight binding, the device identifier is unique to the storage volume and is independent from the drive letter assigned to the volume by the file system. If you want to protect a volume with UWF while excluding specific files, folders, or registry keys from being filtered by UWF, you can add them to a write filter exclusion list.
