Open a ticket so it can get actioned: http://eraser.heidi.ie/trac/newticket

Unfortunately there will be little chance unless you have a back up (you do have a back up don't you) knocking about somewhere...

as always, great work.

Can we get a list of changes. I'd rather not have to go through the install process just to see what has changed.

huzzah!

Sadly the fact that source code for projects is openly available means little in peer review. Those that can tend not to and those that want can't :) Thanks for clearing that up though. I guess more coders are needed to ensure safe code. /me goes to find a book on c# ;o)

Looks like this topic made it to a few other forums: + http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=201699 + http://forums.truecrypt.org/viewtopic.php?t=9618 + Core.onion (hidden tor service if you know the url well and good) Any publicity is good publicity I guess.

Taking this off topic, I'm sure no one will mind. Feel free to split this out into another thread if needed. Joel, while I admire your efforts in taking on this task, what safe guards are being put in place to ensure secure and safe code for v6 while you are writing in C#. It was my...

Don't worry. The erasing of free space does not delete files on your hard drive. What you were probably seeing is the erasing of cluster tips. The files will not be deleted unless you specifically tell eraser to delete them

A little harsh. It's unfair to say Joel and Garrett are detrimental to the project, they have both done trojan work in adding support and fixing bugs I'll applaud your (misguided) effort to try and drum up support.

It makes sense to me. But let me try. Overwiter wants to be able to attach an external drive to a running windows system that has eraser installed. Using this live system he wants to be able to be able to run a DBan like erase of the whole external HDD rather than just the partition wipe...

I am happy to do any destructive tests needed. I've set up a VM windows desktop for testing

Just a thought, perhaps it might be worth having a post detailing what sort of info is required when submitting bugs and how to get it. As I'm sure lot of people who submit are not overly technical.

Thank you so much, you are doing sterling work.

Oh look at that I havea PM :) It's on my listof things to check, just havn't had a chance yet.

All looking good. Apart from one thing, I uninstalled beta2 and deleted every .ers file I could find. Rebooted and installed beta4. Once again it had my Scheduler entries in it :) So where does eraser look for saved .ers files?

I have had a busy few days, didn't get to look at beta3, but should hopefully be able to test out beta4 tomorrow. I'm setting up a virtual machine so I can do destructive tests (if the need arises) with out the hassle of rebuilding

Scratch that, after doing a clean install eraserl.exe does not appear to be in 5.85 beta2. Looks like it was just cruft left around from a previous version. now I wonder with uninstaller left it there...

I no longer have 5.84 installed but can confirm eraserl exists in 5.85 beta2

No it does not
