There is already a default command for that "LAYTHW"

I didn't know that - learn something every day!

the command "LAYTHW"    

applies to the red arrow only

but even side is still frozen

 

and it is what I want to defrost

This is viewport freeze. so its not the layer that is frozen its the viewport not showing the layer.

--Edit

if you only want to do specific layers change the "*" to layer names you want to freeze/thaw

 

"0,Defpoints,layer1"

The short version type -la t * Enter

You have to skip the current layer except for ON or OFF, I believe.  Off will prompt for permission to OFF the current layer.

 

You can do the same in the layer dialog.  select first layer, shift select last layer, click the snowflake or lightbulb, whatever for the last layer.

You can also select all layers in the Layer Properties Manager then right-click and select "VP Thaw All Layers in All Viewports".
