Are the deleted files really securely removed from your Windows pc forever? If not, how to permanently delete files from your Windows computer without recovery? If you are curious about the questions above, you will get the answer here to securely delete files forever.
When you need to permanently delete sensitive and confidential files saved in your Windows computer, you may simply move the files to the Recycle Bin and then empty it. However, it's a pity that this easy way can't securely get rid of the deleted files from your Windows computer actually. As the time of deleting a file is almost the same as that of saving the file in Windows, which means if the deleted file is about 5GB in size, Windows may take several minutes to remove the file. Therefore, to save the time and ensure efficiency, Windows doesn't delete the deleted files instantly and the deleted files will be removed when it's overwritten. In other words, before the deleted file is overwritten, it can be recovered by data recovery tools easily, which puts your privacy in danger.
