It should be much faster than copy and disk-image. Just couple of seconds allowed.

It must be strong enaugh against all malware, viruses, users etc.

It should be able to let admin user to run windows updates or any custom software update.

It must be able to let admin user to save files permamently and change windows settings permamently.
