[Wipe free space drives in V. 2.17.853]

Hello again,

 

I used Wipe Free just now, worked Super Well ! Here are the details:

 

I have an oldish Pentium 4 with CPU at 2.93 Ghz and a RAM of 1 Go.

 

Wipe free was used on a 10 Go partition ( which is NOT the C:\ partition where Windows et al, ruminate...) of which only 700 Mo were used: it contains all my personal files , mainly Open Office types, and supports constant trafic every day. Before Wiping I defragmented .

 

Results: Wipe free cleaned in 7 minutes !

It DID NOTHING to my restore points in Windows

 

Anybody did it on a c;\ partition with Windows in it ?

 

Good day to you all

Hello ,

Thanks to you all and specially to Whiteshark . It's much clearer now.

 

Evidently cleaning a large space might take some time depending also on CPU speed. I' ll try it soon and report my experience.

I find CCleaner a superb product:

Good Day to you all,

 

I noticed in this last version ( 2.17.853) in the options section/ proprieties ( "propri?t?s" in french...) a new window entitled:

 

"Wipe free space drives" which lists all drives.

 

Drive c:\ is earmarked automatically . Users can earmark the other drives

 

Could you explain what is this new function, what is it designed to do ?

 

Presumably it simply cleans these drives as CCleaner does it so WELL for C:\ ! Am I correct ?

 

Thanks for your reply
