Description - Free Disk Wipe
Clean up all traces of sensitive information from your hard disk for absolutely free! Make deleted files completely irrecoverable, guaranteed. Free Disk Wipe erases selected files and data from your hard disk securely and with no traces left. Files and data wiped with Free Disk Wipe will be impossible to recover even in an FBI lab! When you erase a file or folder with a regular `Delete` command in Windows, the actual data is not being wiped off the hard drive. Assuming that you don`t have the Recycle Bin enabled, or that you are removing files from the Recycle Bin, Windows simply marks a file as `deleted` in the file system without even touching its actual contents. The contents of the deleted file remain on the hard disk, available to anyone to be Restored or viewed. If you want to get rid of sensitive information, you must overwrite the contents of the file on the surface of the hard disk; otherwise, anyone can access it later. After all, The Undelete produces quite a few tools for doing just that!
