O&O SafeErase

O&O SafeErase Professional is a security application that is built specifically to help users delete data in a secure manner from their computer, in order that it may not be recovered using specialized tools.

O&O SafeErase Professional has a clean and straightforward interface, which allows you to scan your computer for any files, which contain sensitive or personal data.

After the scan has been undertaken you are presented with details about the items, which were removed from your computer using normal deletion operations on each of your drives, as well as cookie information.

O&O SafeErase protects your security and privacy by safely shredding your sensitive data without leaving any trace.

Sometimes you may delete important files or your private data thinking that it’s gone forever, but using perfect recovery software anyone can recover files that were previously deleted.

Generally, Windows has a bad habit (Sometimes its Good), when you delete a file (even using SHIFT + DEL) it doesn’t physically remove the file from your hard disk, instead, the OS will just release the file space for reuse and it stops listing the file in Windows Explorer, but the file still remains there.

In order to prevent this situation, we need professional software that can delete files forever and is unrecoverable.

O&O SafeErase 15 is such software that can Safely erase files, folders, and even the whole hard drive in just a couple of clicks, using safe deletion methods so that it is never capable of being accessed again.

O&O SafeErase uses the techniques that are being employed by the U. S. Department of Defense (DoD) and the German Department for Security in Information Technology (BSI).

O&O SafeErase Professional gives you the option to delete files directly from the primary panel or via the context menu. You can erase files and folders, partitions, or an entire hard disk, delete the free space, or clean the entire computer. The application also offers support for batch processing; this means you may add multiple items and process them simultaneously.

In addition to these options, you can print or save the data reports to HTML file format, clean all files with a single click, and also tweak the scanning parameters to alter things such as stored Internet files (favorite URLs, bookmarks, passwords, and form fills), Windows temporary items, as well as unsafe deleted files.

This program is used to completely erase computer files and components, so caution is advised. The O&O SafeErase folder contains icons to change settings, access help, and launch TotalErase. In the 30-day trial version, it’s only possible to eliminate files and folders and not all items. Right-clicking on files or folders to delete offers a secure-erase option. Skittish users will be glad to get a prompt before final deletion, which occurs instantly. There are five levels of removal, from highest security to lowest. At the highest setting, data is randomly rewritten 35 times. At the lowest, it’s only done once. O&O SafeErase appears to have the appropriate safeguards in place to avoid accidental deletions, and it’s fairly easy to use. Intermediate to advanced users will like the range of security options and the program’s simplicity.

There is a good chance your personal photos or business data will easily fall into the wrong hands whenever you want to sell, give away or dispose of your old computer. This is because clicking on “Delete” doesn’t automatically mean your data is irrevocably destroyed. Even formatting the hard disk is not enough to completely destroy your data. O&O SafeErase allows you to permanently delete your data using recognized methods so that a recovery is never possible, not even when using specialized software.
