Drive Wipper is a cool tool that helps keep your deleted files truly gone. When you delete something on your computer, it doesn’t just vanish right away; the data sticks around on your hard drive until Windows decides to overwrite it. This can take a while, and in the meantime, someone could easily recover those files using special software.
This is where Drive Wipper comes in handy! It's lightweight and super easy to use. What it does is overwrite all the free space on your drives with random data. You can choose to do this from one pass up to ten passes!
You might wonder why overwriting is so important. Well, Windows tries to save time by just making a file inaccessible when you delete it. But this means that if the file was removed recently, it’s usually pretty easy for someone to get it back.
The safest way to ensure your deleted files are really gone is by overwriting those sectors with new data. While some file wipers let you do multiple passes (even up to 35), studies suggest that a single pass works just fine for most situations.
No tech skills? No problem! The interface of Drive Wipper is clean and straightforward, so anyone can use it without feeling overwhelmed.
To get started, launch the program and pick the drive you want to wipe. Then set how many passes you want and hit that Wipe Now button!
While the wiping process is happening, try not to access that drive or save any new files on it. It might take some time, especially if there's a lot of free space.
In the end, Drive Wipper does its job well! It helps make sure deleted files are completely gone forever and works great for both beginners and pros alike.
