Wipe Free Space


Recommended Posts

  • Moderators

It's a security tool and is something that you do if you are selling or giving away your computer or hard drive.

Wiping the free space, after you have deleted your personal files, ensures that those deleted files can't later be recovered by a programme like Recuva.

In normal use it's not needed, and it won't speed up you computer or free up any space.
