Hello,
first, sorry for my bad English. I'll try to do my best, to describe the issues with the software of piriform.
Every time I use CCleaner (up to date version), it clears all my free disc space on all drives. To check the results of this free-disc-cleaning I used Recuva and I tried to recover any files from the erased free space. Nothing could be found and I was pleased.
Now the failure of both programs (CCleaner and Recuva):
I wanted to control what CCleaner and Recuva are doing, and I'm frightened how bad both programs are working.
To recover the free disc space I tried O&O DiskRecovery v6, and this Software found over 100-thousand of files (XLS, DOC, JPG, BMP, AVI, WMW, ...) , with can all restored without any problems!
My personal result is, that CCleaner does NOT clear the free disc space, and Recuva does NOT find any deleted files.
Nice freeware, but without any function.
Can you please help me, to get me free disc space effective clean?! If not, please tell me, with software can erase the free disc space really.
Best regards from Germany
Uli
