It is misnamed. I wanted an application to securely wipe an OS from a disk, prior to disposal of the PC. This program should be caled \"File Wipe\".

I used this program to wipe a number of disks and it worked great. I will keep the program and use it again. Thanks for the great program

Worked perfectly!A great program that I would recommend without reservations.

Downloaded fine, but didn\'t work. Process stopped at Error, disk in use, or some such wording. I want to wipe my hard drive for recycling and haven\'t found a way to do it yet. Windows xp won\'t even let me format the disk. I don\'t get it.

Could not get disk wipe to boot up to erase the drive.

I was pleased with the ease of use of the program, and also the results, but i was completely unaware that as it performed the cleanup, it fully used up all the space on my D drive, which put me off using it on my C drive, where my OS is installed. The file was removed automatically after the process, but I will not risk causing instability and would appreciate warning about the temporary file.

Files recovered even after wiping After using QuickWiper to wipe my free disk space, I ran a file recovery program and found a lot of files still recoverable and operable after the recovery. Maybe I do not fully understand the purpose of the program.

Additional Info Required Need to know if 3rd party forensic examination of the disc will show that it has been wiped and by what means. Can it be assumed that using this system on a given hard drive, for example, will result in a discrete cleaning that is undetectable upon subsquent inspection.Please advise and include any amplifying details that you may have regarding how to best utilize this product in order to achieve undetected wiping.Thanks

I only briefly went through both down loads, but stopped at the point where it said that the disc would now be formatted and data lost. ??? just the partition or the whole drive: not clear so I cancelled using your product. good luck, but more clarity is needed.

review needs to be longer Seems to work fine, issues with performance when using no compression. otherwise OK

Worked as advertised for me. Thank you very much guys.Ron

still didn`t take care of corrupted files I have a few corrupted files inside of folders on my flash drive.How they got corrupted is beyond me. I have been trying, unsuccessfully to delete them and remove the folders. (I had my data backed up elsewhere also, so losing the files wasn't a problem).I had hoped your software would be able to remove them.It didn't.I still don't know how to remove them.

Good Utility for Linux and other format This is good utility cost effective and easy

CompuApps (Santa Clara, Calif.) DriveEraser This program works well: it efficiently wipes the drive, via various means of overwriting. The user can choose whether to overwrite with ones, zeroes, or a more sophisticated scheme. Multiple overwrites can be done, in order to addresss the lingering-data concern of residual (remanent) magnetism on magnetic data-storage devices. This program works nicely for all sorts of data-storage devices: internal hard drives, external hard drives, flash drives, memory cards, etc.CompuApps DriveEraser enables the user to have the confidence that, once the drive has been overwritten multiple times (ideally a dozen or more, and ideally using multiple schemes), even the ...

Great sw, thanks for help!

Didn`t do the Job Installed well and ran wipe twice on USB hard drive. Tested afterward with "Get Data Back" by Runtime Software. All wiped data was fully recovered. I don't recommend this software to wipe your hard disk.
