Deep Freeze is used to lockdown the state of the computer. When the computer is rebooted any changes will be reverted password changes included. You would need to open the deep freeze console and put the system in the thaw state, change the password and then freeze it again.

Hi! There is no where near the information provided in your thread for anyone to be able to help you with your issue.;)
The more information you can post, the better. I don't think there's supposed to be a gray animal in your tray!
Can you provide screen shots??

An image from 'Security Software'. Both images show a Windows Task Manager with processes listed, highlighting a ghost icon in the system tray.

Thanks for the feed back! Welcome to the forum. If you have any more issues, please ask here on Windows Forums!
I'm glad you got your issue solved. Googled Deepfreeze. I'm not sure what it is?? A game or a anti-virus.
Only run one anti-virus on your PC. I recommend running Windows Defender if your running W10.
