What would you like to delete?
Files
1. Select Files.
This option lets you search for files on your computer to select them for deletion.
2. Click Add to add a file to be deleted to the list.
The Explorer opens. Double-click on a file to be deleted to add it to the list. Alternatively, you can drag a
file from your opened Explorer or from the Desktop to the list (using Drag & Drop). Select a file with the
mouse and drag it into the list.
The Delete allocated free disk space option overwrites the space that becomes free through deletion,
thereby increasing security of deletion.
If you add a file to the list by mistake, you can remove it again by selecting the entry and clicking
Remove.
3. Click Next to confirm your selection.
You can now select the desired deletion method (see Deletion Methods, p. 76).
Folders
1. Select Folders.
This option lets you search for folders on your computer to select them for deletion. When a folder is
deleted, all the files it contains will also be deleted. When you select a folder for deletion, the program
detects whether this contains subfolders and you have the opportunity to exclude these from the
search.
2. Click Select.
A tree structure opens in your folder. Select here a folder to be deleted and click OK. Alternatively, enter
into the text field the full path of the folder to be deleted.
The Delete allocated free disk space option overwrites the space reserved for the files in the selected
folder, thereby increasing deletion security.
If the selected folders have subfolders, here you can remove them from the search. Do this by uncheck-
ing the Include subordinate folders checkbox.
3. Click Next to confirm your selection.
You can now select the desired deletion method (see Deletion Methods, p. 76).
