Completely Remove Data Using Eraser (Better than Formatting)

Free Windows Books, Software, and Guides

Eraser removes data from your computer completely. You may already know that when you “format” a drive, the information is still there. The best way to completely remove data is to write over it, and this is what Eraser does. Eraser is designed for XP, Server 2003, and older Windows versions.
