Privacy Eraser Free is an open source software for Windows designed to delete unnecessary private data to enhance the security.
Toolset
There is a convenient dashboard that displays all key tools. Users can complete deep scan and cleanup to detect all cache, leftovers and other unnecessary data stored in the drives. During inspection, it is essential to close all currently running browsers. This way, the program is able to properly identify components that may comprise one’s privacy.
Please note that the cleaner does not remove any of your login details. All your account credentials will not be touched, you just need to reenter the platforms you have been logged in before. Similar to Reg Organizer, there is no need to restart the system after deletion. On top of that, you can create backups in case you would like to restore the history of visited web pages.
Drive wiper
There is an option to wipe the whole drive to delete all sensitive information from the hardware. Thus, you can make sure there is no private data left in the discs. This is especially helpful when you would like to sell your current computer and make sure it does not have any traces of your activities. It is important to mention that compared to standard cleanups, this one does not come with backup and restore methods.
