It should be called AutoDelete (Recover with Recuva). It simply is not private but it does delete the files automatically. InPrivate is the least of the privacy options. There is no way to do private browsing short of installing VMWare server with a separate OS then targeting it's temp file for a nuke session with Eraser. Cleaners could get paranoid about all this. Log on as an admin, run Recuva and see what you've left behind. Any time you think you've wiped out your browser traces, think again. If you do, Windows deletes the files but leaves them exposed and available for recovery. It's not the default but lots of user's check it. Watch out for IE's Advanced setting Empty temporary files on exit. If you allow any of those IE files to be deleted by Windows, you will need to use Eraser and/or a combination of Recuva and Eraser to get rid of the files and the directory entries. But you've got to educate yourself on how to tell Windows NOT to delete files. That way CCleaner can be switched to do a secure delete, delete (and rename with Z's) and overwrite. The only way around this is NOT to allow Windows to delete anything. Your InPrivate browsing files get deleted which means the files are still there and Recuva can see and recover them. Seriously, though, this whole cleaning thing isn't what it's cracked up to be. If someone is likely to get to your hard drive and try to recover files, use the Wipe Free Space option along with deleting directory entries and, while you're at it, clean the cluster tips if you have a few hours. To prevent casual review of your browsing history, use Eraser to delete directory entries and you're done. So for your cleaning, you need to ask youself what you want to clean and why. I have my big huge files from the other drive. CCleaner only cleans up C drive but I want to wipe other drive as well. I have two hard drive, local disk C and New Volume D. Understand that when Windows deletes a file, nothing happens except the file name is removed from view and the space occupied is marked as available. CCleaner gets better and better every update. You will need to learn and understand how it works to be effective. In fact just use DBAN defauts for those times you want to start all over with a fresh drive, OS, applications, etc.Įraser, on the other hand, erases files, folders and/or free disk space. DBAN is great for rebuilding systems from scratch. Eraser will do exactly what you need it to do.
