XL Delete
-
Version
1.1
XL Delete is a powerful secure delete tool that will
permanently delete any of your files using one of its
five wipe methods or with a custom method that you
create. Many people believe that emptying the recycle
bin will delete a file forever. This is not true, when
you delete a file and empty it from the recycle bin,
the file is in fact still on your hard drive. The only
thing that happens when you empty the recycle bin is
that Windows marks the area where the file is on the
hard drive as overwriteable so that it can reuse the
space when necessary. This allows special data
recovery software to be able to actually undelete the
file and view all of its original contents.
When you delete a file with XL Delete, the file data
will actually be overwritten several times using
specialized methods to prevent data recovery software
from being able to undelete the file. XL Delete will
also incorporate several obfuscation techniques to hide
the original file name and file size from data recovery
software.
You can be assured that once you delete a file with XL
Delete, it will be gone for good.
