Re: Erasing a computer's data
Paul Martz <skewmatrix@...>
One tool that might help is Piriform CCleaner. It has a “Drive Wiper” tool that claims to securely erase data from all free space on a disk. CCleaner has several features, and this is one that I have not personally used. However, for the most part, CCleaner does appear to be accessible, and a free version is available. -Paul

What’s the simplest way to erase or at the very least format a computer, an old XP machine? Might I simply type format c: from the command line? All the best, Brian
