How To PERMANENTLY Delete Files/Photos
Hey guys, im doing some cleaning up on my computer because im thinking about getting a new one and i might try and sell my old computer. So how does one permanently delete files/photos so no one can somehow restore them or look them up and find them. I have some personal files and photos on here of family etc. that i want completely gone. Would just reinstalling windows on the same hard drive do this or would someone with computer skills and knowledge be able to still restore them.
Thanks! |
if you want to be sure just pull the hard drive and clean it with a hammer!!

I like www.ccleaner.com for cleaning my computer but It doesnt clean pictures or files.
|
only way i have heard to get rid of everything for ever is to drill a hole in the harddrive and reinstall the hard drive and hope the person that buys it dont notice

Norton Works isn't very expensive and it claims to clean to government specs. Worked well on my old computer but haven't tried I with new updated programs yet.
