You may not know this, but deleting a file or folder leaves traces on your hard drive and this data can be recovered using specialized software\u2026 even after emptying the recycle bin.<\/p>\n

It's important to know that when you completely delete a file, that is, when you remove it from the Recycle Bin, your computer doesn't actually erase the file completely. It simply says, "The space this file occupied is now free." But the information is still there!<\/p>\n

If you want to completely erase certain data without any possibility of recovery by a malicious person, use Eraser. This software will repeatedly scan the space where your file is stored to overwrite all traces of it. When you delete a file with this utility, it will physically scan the entire location that contained the file and overwrite it with zeros.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Eraser allows you to erase a disk, file or folder on a one-off basis or to schedule its erasure at regular intervals.<\/p>\n
