Hello,
I have an external HDD
Had it formatted and copied new Files on it.
When i use Deep Scan i got over 2000 files that are unrecoverable but you can identify them by the full file name and used path.
I tried to Sercure Override the files but it don't work "Not overwritten -File is already overwritten by existing file(s)
What can i do to clearn any trays of the old files?
They are unrecoverable because there's already data overwriting it (files on top) there for a secure delete (which overwrites data on top of the file) can't be performed.

I see so when i copy all data elsewese, erase the HDD with lets say CCleaner's Drive Wipe (1 pass) and copy data back to the HDD, will that work?
Yes
Caveat: that the wipe mft option in ccleaner is checked (I believe, though other members may be more certain on that point)
Great. Thanks
