Erase Your Documents and Drives Securely.

Because it's been deleted from your hard drive, doesn't mean it's gone forever. As long as the information was not overwritten, anyone can restore it at any time.

It gets even more complicated, if a computer has been resold or given away.

Secure Eraser uses the most renowned method of data disposal and overwrites sensitive information in such a sure way that it can never be retrieved - even with specialized software. Our multiple award-winning solutions for definitively destroying data also eliminate any cross-references that could leave traces of deleted files in the allocation table of your hard drive.

This easy-to-use Windows software will overwrite sensitive data even up to 35 times - regardless of whether they are files, folders, drives, recycle bin or traces of surfing. You can also delete files that have already been deleted, but this time for good.

Secure Eraser not only overwrites using random data, it offers the approved US Dod 5220.22-ME and U.S. DoD 5220.22-MECE standards from the US Department of Defense, the German industrial standard and the Peter Gutmann standard. All deletions are logged in details upon request.

I had a folder, not related to any program or installation that I made myself. It wouldn't delete for anything; kept telling me the folder didn't exist in its location. I could put things into it, rename it, but not delete it. I tried software that granted administrative rights, software that unlocks files, ran CCleaner, Defragged, ran Microsoft Fix Its, ran SFC /ScanNow, tried rebooting, other invalid file deletion software wouldn't touch it because they don't delete folders, but Secure Eraser got rid of it.
