O&O SafeErase - 19
Delete temporary Windows and program files
Tip: After deciding on your deletion specifications, you can also store them as Deletion list , which is useful, if you
want to repeat the same deletion at the next program start.
For this, open the drop-down menu on Run and select To the deletion list. The deletion list stores the selected
activity, so that you can load and run it as often as you want, without needing to specify your settings every time.
SafeErase data from the Windows Recycle bin
Files you have deleted may still be in the Windows Recycle Bin. Even if you empty the Recycle Bin, the data might still
be accessible. O&O SafeErase allows you to SafeErase the content of the Windows Recycle Bin. This comes in
handy, because normally all files, which you usually do not need anymore, are collected there. In other words, the
danger of accidentally deleting data which you might still need is quiet low.
1. Select Delete temporary Windows and program files on the start page of O&O SafeErase and then check
Delete content of Windows Recycle Bin.
2. By clicking on Run now you will get to selection of the Deletion method.
3. After selecting the deletion method you can start the deletion with SafeErase now. All listed files will be
deleted irrevocably.
Tip: Alternatively you can also empty the Recycle Bin by clicking on SafeErase (empty) Recycle Bin. For more
information read chapter SafeErase data from the Windows Recycle Bin via right-clicking.
