What are the benefits of pristine or non-persistent desktops?
There are several benefits of a pristine desktop. First, a user gets a “freshly brewed” desktop each time, thus guaranteeing a virus-free desktop that performs well. It reduces desk-side support for the IT staff because the user is given a standard desktop each time. If problems arise, the IT administrator can simply ask the user to log out and log back in and avoid the need to diagnose the problem. It allows the IT staff to provide a consistent, tested environment to a group of users and ensure that what they receive is exactly what IT tested and created.
