Permanently Delete Windows Files

2009-10-07T06:38:00.000-07:00

Microsoft says "when you delete a file in Windows, even bypassing the Recycle Bin, the data isn't removed from disk.
Instead, the file's entry in the Master File Table is marked as deleted and its clusters are freed up to store new data. That process is efficient from a disk-management point of view. But it can leave deleted files vulnerable: Unless new data wipes out all of a deleted file's clusters, that file can still be recovered. The only way to ensure that a file can't be revived is to securely overwrite all its data. One way to achieve that is by using Microsoft's free utility SDelete."How to install sdelete?

Download sdelete from http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897443.aspx and extract that file.

Copy sdelete.exe into your c:\windows\system32 location

Now open your command prompt and type sdelete and click enter.

It will show you what are the options that you can use with sdelete.

"sdelete [-p passes] [-s] [-q]
sdelete [-p passes] [-z|-c] [drive letter]
-c - Zero free space (good for virtual disk optimization) [Note: This option wipes free spaces with zero values.]
-p passes - Specifies the number of overwrite passes (default is 1)
-q - Don't print errors (Quiet)
-s - Recurse subdirectories [Note: The contents of all subdirectories are included in the deletion or disk wipe.]
-z - Cleans free space"

you can use below script from http://www.lifehacker.com to delete file permanently

@echo off
echo .* * *W A R N I N G * * *
echo .
echo .The File(s)/Folders(s) Will Be Permanently Deleted!
echo .
echo .Press CTRL-C to Abort and Terminate Batch Job Or...
