    Automatically Terminate When Launched From Context Menu

    Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 x64 Eraser 6.2.0.2992 If I launch Eraser from a Windows Explorer context menu, I would like it to terminate automatically when it is done. On the other hand, if I launch Eraser by selecting its icon from my Start menu, it should remain active until I manually terminate it.

    Unwanted Tasks Added to Schedule

    When I erase a file via the Windows Explorer context menu, a task is automatically added to Eraser's schedule. Sometimes, this results in duplicate tasks. I only want those tasks that I explicitly create during a drag-and-drop operation. How do I prevent automatic creation of tasks?

    This repeats a thread I started almost a year ago. My current Eraser User Guide is a PDF file dated 11 October 2014. Since that date, I have updated Eraser four times.

    Bad Captcha Processing

    Using the envelope icon at the bottom of the downloads page at http://eraser.heidi.ie/download/, I tried to send a message to the Eraser team. I very carefully input the Captcha string (which was much more legible than many others). When I selected Send, however, the Web page returned a note...

    Eraser in Windows Explorer

    Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (x64) Eraser 6.2.0.2962 I installed Eraser in the J-partition of a hard drive, primarily because the C-partition was becoming full. Now, I cannot get Eraser integrated into Windows Explorer. Otherwise, Eraser works just great. Do I need to install it in the...

    Bring Back v.5.8 Capabilities?

    I am still using Eraser 5.8.2.0 for three reasons: 1. When I attempted to install Eraser 6.0.10.2620, I was not given any option where to install it. It automatically went into C:\Program Files\Eraser. Eraser 5.8.2.0 allowed me to install in any directory I chose. Yes, there was a Browse...
