Drive Wipper1.15.5.0

When you delete a file, the data is still stored on the hard drive until Windows overwrites it, which can take a while. In the meantime, even though references to the file have been removed, it can still be recovered quite easily using specialized software.Drive Wipper is a lightweight, easy-to-use application that can help you ensure deleted files are no longer recoverable. It overwrites all the free space on your drives with random data, and it can perform anywhere from one to 10 passes.

Prevent deleted files from being recovered

Windows saves time and processing power by simply making a file inaccessible once it is deleted, and the data will be overwritten over time, as new files are created. However, this also means that files that have been removed recently can usually be recovered without too much effort.The best way to make sure deleted files are gone for good is by overwriting these sectors with random data. Even though file wipers can usually perform numerous passes (up to 35 in some cases), research has shown that one pass should be enough in the vast majority of scenarios.
