I am looking to use the new 'Wipe MFT free space' option. However, can anyone advise whether it is possible to run this option alone and nothing else?
It would be good it CCleaner erased a file's MFT record automatically when it erased a file.
I recently created a new Partition, named 'D', from my 'C' drive, is it true that when I save a file into the new 'D' drive an MFT index link is created on the C drive pointing to the file contents of the 'D drive.? So if I was to completely format the 'D' partition and then erase all the resulting free space, a link to all the erased files will still exist on the C drive's MFT?
I also suggest that it might to useful to transfer your C drive's Document folder onto a dedicated Partition and keep it a reasonable size, then it will be much easier to erase the free space on a regular basis, rather than do such on the C drive, which can be very, very big. I also understand that should your C drive/OS become corrupted you could have a better chance of recovering your documents from the separate partition.
