Data Eraser

Data Eraser is an application designed to help you to securely wipe out files, folders and free disk space with as little effort as possible.

The program is wrapped in a clean and well-organized interface with intuitive features that let you remove the desired files once and for all. It can be configured by any type of users, even those less experienced with such software.

The tool gives you the possibility to completely erase multiple items at the same time. Files can be imported in the main panel using either the built-in browse button or the drag and drop feature.

Once the files or folders are added, details about each item can be analyzed, such as name, type, size, date modified, and full path.

Data Eraser enables you to choose one of the two available file removal methods, namely one pass or US DoD 5220.22-M with three passes. More than that, the utility lets you wipe the free space on your drives, making sure that data recovery programs cannot get back previously deleted files. During the erasing process, a progress bar is shown to inform you about the percentage of the task.

During our tests, we noticed that the app had a good data erasing speed and worked without errors. But this depends on the device's occupied storage, number of files and total size. It can be used even on older PC configurations, since the CPU footprint is minimal.

Taking all things into account, Data Eraser proves to be a reliable and useful tool if you want to securely erase your files, folders and even previously deleted items. Thanks to the good speed and intuitive interface, it's an application that surely deserves a chance.
