    Fat32 filesystem question

    I have used Eraser for some time now and its a really nice product. It might be this question is really about Fat32 and not specifically Eraser, but I rely upon the knowledge here for clarity. Example: I have a 1 TB usb external which has two partitions on it. One is 100 Gig of Fat32 and the...

    Eraser 6 Plugin

    This is a long shot hope that someone here has this. I am looking for (or can create with some guidance) an Eraser 6.0.9 plugin to use with UBCD4Win. I love the way the latest and greatest Eraser works. I am re-doing my build for UBCD4Win and want to include Eraser. Being able to securely...

    can't erase unused disc space

    Just because you a logged on as an Admin user doesn't mean you are running Eraser that way. Try this: exit eraser. Then go to the Eraser icon on the desktop (assuming you have one) and right click it. Select "Run as Administrator" in the options menu. When you start Eraser in this way your...

    need help removing 5.8.8 remnants

    msconfig was sooooo easy. Thanks for the suggestion. It'll actually be easier than opening a virtual volume. Much appreciated!!

    need help removing 5.8.8 remnants

    David, Yep the virtual space method works well. As a precaution I went ahead and deleted 6 and created a new virtual volume (whopping 5 meg - LOL) on my desktop to re-install 6. It went well. Actually though I like the idea of using msconfig to configure Eraser 6 NOT to come on until/unless...

    need help removing 5.8.8 remnants

    Joel and David, Thanks for the directions. I used the method Joel described and 5.8.8 uninstalled without a hitch. I had never considered killing explorer as the problem. When I killed explorer the uninstaller worked great. Eraser 6 is working fine too. I didn't uninstall it. In fact I...

    need help removing 5.8.8 remnants

    Joel, I would have no problem re-installing 5.8.8 if it would help to uninstall it properly. 5.8.8 appears to always be ON. Is there a trick/method to removing 5.8.8 from the Vista 64 start menu? With it appearing to be ON, the uninstall program will not launch. When I boot Vista I don't...

    need help removing 5.8.8 remnants

    I use the newest Eraser 6 and its great. I tried to remove 5.8.8 from one of my computers. Since it is always on I couldn't use the uninstall program in control panel even when running in full Admin mode. I manually deleted the Eraser folder from C and then went to system32 and deleted the...

    removing last access, last change data

    Joel I can't see any temp files on the USB drive outside of the encrypted and dismounted volume. The flash I am experimenting with for this thread is a 4G with only 40 meg of free space. The majority of the drive space is being used by the TC encrypted volume. The flash contains three...

    removing last access, last change data

    I am very fond of your program. I have been reading and using several of your releases. This question is likely to be slightly outside of the "eraser arena" but its so closely related it might be nice to incorporate it. I use forensic software to examine how thoroughly Eraser does its job...
