habaneroman6782 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Greetings all: Just wondering why the latest versions of Ccleaner sees platter type hard disks as an SSD drive. We cannot overwrite the free space of our hard drives with more than one overwrite pass at a time? Does law enforcement agencies have anything to do with this? We have had to drop back to earlier versions to enable the other extended wipe features for patter type hard drives. Methinks that perhaps Ccleaner does or rather did such an efficient job of wiping the free space, that Pirform perhaps has been contacted by NSA or some such agency, and told to limit the number of wipe methods in their latest releases......this is an outstanding product. Ccleaner owes it to their customers/supporters to either fix this problem, or let us know why they either cannot or will not........just sayin.

Moderators mta Posted October 8, 2017 Moderators Share Posted October 8, 2017 this is a known issue that's been around for quiet a while now. the Admins and Dev Team know about it but sadly there's been no report on any solution. Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.
