SafeErasing the entire computer
O&O SafeErase - 33
SafeErasing the entire computer
The function Delete entire computer enables you to delete an entire computer without needing to create a boot CD
first. All data, settings, programs, etc. will be deleted - a restoration will be impossible.
Deleting your entire computer enables you to SafeErase your data when you sell, give away, or throw away your com-
puter. You can rest assured that nobody will be able to restore and abuse your data.
After confirming the deletion, you will be asked to restart your computer. The actual deletion will be executed during
restart.
Important! Please bear in mind that data deleted with O&O SafeErase cannot be restored, not even with the use of
special software or hardware. Please bear this in mind to avoid accidental deletion of you data!
