    Erase unused disk space - proceeds to erase files?

    If you see all the file names at the start, those are cluster tip erasures. Unless you disabled that too.

    Considering a basic security question (regarding this forum)

    Re: Considering a basic security question (regarding this fo TBH, and I'll be frank, nothing. But the forum is just a stock phpBB install. I can write PHP, but as it stands I've got insufficient time to work on Eraser, so... we'll have to stick to whatever behaviour phpBB prescribes, I'm afraid.

    history log file of deleted files

    Not at the moment, but there have been requests for such a facility. If it gets implemented, it'll only be in 6.2

    Erasing free space of a disk : always reports errors ...

    I'm not trying to defend Eraser or anything, but CCleaner targets a slightly different audience. Naturally the behaviour would be different. Eraser started out as a tool for (very) paranoid people. Or, well, at least I thought so.

    Eraser v. 6.1 beta??

    There's a post at the top of this forum on what to do when you want to go back to 6.0. Basically, it involves deleting the task list.

    "completed with errors" comment

    Then you need to check out the task log (right click the task) and see what it says there.

    Erasing free space of a disk : always reports errors ...

    System Volume Information is a protected folder and no one will be able to touch it. So don't worry about that error. I probably might implement some whitelist that won't report these kinds of errors. But I'm not sure.

    Custom file erasing method: how to check result?

    Eraser 5 will replace all erased files with DLLs, if memory serves. Eraser 6 allows you to turn this feature off. But if it's Eraser 5, unfortunately I don't think we've got the resources to maintain that any longer.

    Checking version always assumes that I have an old one

    I'll not comment on 6.1, because that was never meant to be used by the masses. As for the 6.0.10 updating checking, does 6.0.11 (which I hear was released in my absence) fix it?

    Window 3.11 Computer

    I'd never thought I'd be young enough to hear of such an anecdote :O (yes I know what 3.11 is. so maybe I'm not that young anymore)

    Has Eraser development & support mostly stopped?

    I'm back from my 9 month long unpaid leave from Eraser development. Hur hur. Let's get some things moving, shall we?

    Error: Eraser has stopped working

    Or, just delete the Eraser Task List. There's an FAQ entry for that.

    Integrate Eraser into xplorer² (windows explorer alternative

    Re: Integrate Eraser into xplorer² (windows explorer alterna I do not understand why Eraser's context menu does not appear. We merely follow the same things that other context menu registering programs do, so if you can point out one thing we're doing wrong, I'll be more than happy to look into...

    Wipe free space fills up HDD

    At this point I don't think there are other ways of doing this. I'm afraid you'll have to bear with it.

    Joel, you still working on Eraser?

    I'm back for the summer. I hope. I've got programmes in school still, but hopefully that's not too unmanageable. First I need to see what's going on here and then plan something for the next few weeks.
