Thanks David and Joel for the replies. I've done all the defragging and CCleaner bit and my computer is really bothered, running slow, low disk space, etc. and the problem files stubbornly remain. So I uninstalled Eraser, CCleaner, and Recuva for the moment. The good news is I switched off the...

If you read back through I think you'll see I've tried to decribe all these outcomes before, sorry if I'm not being clear enough, I'll summarise what I've done. I suppose one of the problems here is that the problem keeps changing, depending on which version used (my original post concerned...

Unfortunately neither version will clean my unused disk space properly and so the items I previously deleted remain on the machine, the removal of which was my reason for downloading it in the first place. So, yes I can use it for removing any future files as long as I erase them rather than...

@nether star: thanks for the input, the files won't open, 'cannot find location or has been deleted' or some such, but there is a preview of the file available so they're certainly around somewhere! @DavidHB: Ran the unused space wipe last night without cluster tips, ran with a warning (System...

I removed the previous version and loaded the latest as suggested (Complete rather than Typical this time). Ran a task to clear unused disk space and after 11 minutes it stopped with the message 'the task was cancelled'. If you can direct me to the black box recorder I'll pass the information...

Thanks for your reply David. I've tried to do as you said using the links you provided: deleted task list and downloaded november 2009 root certificates update from microsoft, both seemed to work okay, but not at all sure about the registry entires as I couldn't find their location. Anyway...

Hi, first post and not very computer literate so please bear with me... I've recently downloaded Eraser 6.07 and have run a clean-up on free disk space several times (which has taken many hours, so must have done something!) but many of the files I'd like to see the back of (previously deleted)...
