jackypaper Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 If I set CCleaner to empty the Recycle Bin as part of its cleaning task, does it shred the files there as it does with the other rubbish (3 passes, in my case), or simply empty it, as per Windows?

molitar Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Totally shreds them.. Recuva, Undelete Software, and GetDataBack has not been able to find traces of deleted software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

q231 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 it shreds the file(s) then overwrites it to make it unrecoverable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
