==Configuration==
 
The system image for the lab computers installs a configuration with Windows 11. The storage drive is partitioned into system drives and data drives. As mentioned above, the system drives will be wiped during a system image update. The data drive(s) can be used to install your experiment scripts on and write data from your experiment to, but are not meant as long-term storage.

Operating systemWindows 11

Our Lab Computers are installed with a System Image. This helps us standardize, manage and maintain all software and drivers across all computers in the BSI and DCC research labs. A standardized image allows researchers to easily transfer their experiments from one lab to the other (e.g. in case of booking constraints) or conduct research in multiple labs simultaneously with identical settings.

The TSG will periodically update this image to improve performance and security.
⚠️ During the update, the Windows (C:\) will be wiped, as may the Data (D:\) drive. Therefore, please back up your data from the Data drive to your network drive regularly (e.g. at the end of every day).

Pre-Installed Software

Below is a list of the most frequently used applications that are installed as part of the system image.
⚠️This list is incomplete and outdated. Please contact our Administrator if you want to know if a certain program or additional version is installed, or check the changelog.
