O&O BrowserPrivacy

O&O BrowserPrivacy

O&O BrowserPrivacy is a handy tool that helps you manage your web browsing data across different browsers. Nowadays, sticking to just one browser is pretty rare. Most of us use at least two search engines in our daily routines. Keeping a single browser clean is easy since its settings let you erase data in seconds. But if you’re hopping between different web browsers, you might need something like O&O BrowserPrivacy to help keep things tidy.

Easy Management of Browsers

This software works with some of the most popular browsers out there: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Microsoft Edge/Internet Explorer. If you want to clear specific data from one browser without messing with the others, just uncheck the items you want to keep safe during the process. For a full cleanup, simply select all using the button in the lower-left corner and start the deletion.

Multiple Deletion Methods

O&O BrowserPrivacy offers six different methods for deleting data, each with varying levels of security. Each method has a different number of runs that overwrite your data with random values, making it harder for anyone to recover it later. For example, Lower Security takes only one run and finishes quickly but may not be super secure. On the flip side, the highest security method runs 35 times! It takes longer but guarantees that your info is wiped out safely.

Special SSD Treatment

If you're using an SSD (Solid State Drive), there's only one deletion method available, which your system will automatically recognize. This method is called SolidErase and is specifically designed for SSDs because their structure is different from traditional hard drives.

Troubleshooting Deletion Issues

If you see a warning message at the end of your cleanup process, don’t worry too much! Sometimes files can’t be deleted because other programs are using them. Closing those programs usually does the trick. However, some files are locked by the system and can’t be erased at all.

User-Friendly Cleanup Tool

Overall, O&O BrowserPrivacy is a straightforward tool that lets you delete data from multiple supported browsers all at once! It’s quick and gives you control over what type of data gets deleted from which browser. Still, it would be great to see updates that support more browsers since new search engines pop up all the time!
