Custom Folders/Files
Custom folders/files clean-up enables you to wipe files from selected folders.
Windows does not securely delete files. Any file deleted by Windows can be
recovered.
Unlike Windows, Acronis Privacy Expert Suite securely and unrecoverably
destroys user files from specified folders, using special methods. (See Appendix
A «Hard Disk Wiping methods»).
To delete user files, the suite enables you to select a data destruction method,
specify «Files» setting value and the user folder list to clean.
To select a list of folders and files to clean with Acronis Privacy Expert
Suite:
1. Select Custom Folders/Files List.
2. Select «Folders/Files» setting and add the folders and files to destroy, clicking
Add in the right part of the editor window.
