Hi guys, i just want to ask if there's any software that completely deleted the unwanted files. I'm asking this because i deleted some files from my drive D i used SHIFT + DEL. But when I used my restoration software and press the search button it is still there.
What I want is to completely delete the files even if I used restoration softwares the software should'nt be detecting it.
Thanks and sorry for my bad english

You want to use some sort of "file shredder". A program like this will delete your files and then overwrite the area used by the deleted files 7 or 8 times (I think). That way it will be impossible to "recover" the files

CCleaner ...will do it and cleanup your computer too
It has different levels of shredding from 1 pass to 35 passes.
Its free and works great!

You need to use Option 1 as this securely deletes the files, Option two only adds the Shift + Del command to the context menu. 7 pass will be more secure.

Strange you cannot download it. My only guess is your Antivirus or something else is blocking you from downloading reg files so I zipped both the 1 pass and the 7 pass for you. Make sure you download the SDelete file and follow the instructions and take note the EULA for SDelete will only show once.

Thanks for uploading it for me. I'm downloading it from company PC thats why it keeps blocking me when im trying to download .reg files. Other files are ok.
I will follow instructions and try to delete some files and also i will try my restoration software to see if the software can or cannot recover the deleted files.

But the restoration software I have still can recover it.
Here's the SS, i made a new folder, named it samplever2 and delete it using Permanently Delete on the context menu. Then I used the restoration software I have hoping for positive outcome.
I guess the restoration software i have is really that good.

If your installing this on a company PC make sure you get permission as this will most likely be easily detected by anyone else using the PC and it is not worth your job if you breach company policy.
With the warnings out the way let us know how it goes.
I doubt you will be able to recover the 7 pass but you can always try to increase the number of passes by changing the "/p 7" to a higher number in the reg file.Not sure if SDelete has a max number of passes and the more passes will require more time to delete, the main concern here would be with large files >100mb.
EDIT: I was too slow. What restoration software are you using?
Out of curiosity can the folder actually be restored?
Im the only one using this PC but i just heard that they are planning to replace all the desktop including the hard drives. So I just need to back up and delete some of my files.
If i will increase the number of passes, is 20 passes ok?

I also used 20 passes and it works fine. though it cannot delete .exe files if im not mistaken. The good thing is the restoration software im using cannot recover it anymore.
About the software im using you can see the SS i made on my previous post. thats all of it. Its a 3 files, 2 .dll and 1 .exe, and you can use it without installing it. I think i got this on one of the shared folders of our IT people here.
