Did you know that when you delete a file from your hard drive it can still be recovered? This is because the delete command in Windows doesn't permanently destroy the file; it leaves it hidden, waiting to be replaced by other data. This can be bad for those users who usually have to delete private files, with information that has to be erased permanently. Smart Data Scrubber lets you delete all type of files, and make sure that you get the security and confidentiality that you deserve. The program scans your hard drive and shows all the files that haven't been completely deleted. You just have to tell it which ones you want to delete, and the program can then permanently erase them. Now your privacy is safe thanks to Smart Data Scrubber.
