Re: Is a file moved to a USB drive recoverable in hard drive
When you do secure move eraser will copy the file and erase the original. If you really want to be safe you can empty the recycle bin and do a free space erase to wipe any temporary files created by the application you may have used...
With this floppy problem I'll need to get an XP machine with a floppy drive, these days that could be a near impossible task, currently we test with XP VM images.
The task window you mention is a feature missing problem from 6.0
Await the next release....
Just released a new build http://eraser.heidi.ie/download.php?id=279
From your screenshots its the old 6.0 version you are using. You need to be testing against the above build as I cannot fix bugs in older versions.
Let me know if the new version fixes the floppy issue.
Can you retest with this version: http://eraser.heidi.ie/download.php?id=278
I think the marker you refer to might be the FAT delete marker. I'll check this over the weekend.
mmm Eraser 8.5.5?? You must be using a time machine :)

Eraser 5.7 is an x86 application, you need to install the 6.0 series as it will appear in both x86 and x64 explorer.
To use the 5.7 version on 64bit windows you need to start up the 32bit version of explorer.
Have you tried wiping the drive (Zero it with a freespace erase), saving a new file , erasing that and trying to recover?
Recoverable files are often either old temp files or files still in the recycle bin.
Currently Joel is busy in college and I'm working on other things. Eraser has not been forgotten.
At the moment we have a plan to update the website to use WordPress so we can create articles etc on the various repeat questions we get here which sucks up time etc.
Development has stopped for...
The issue seems to be a DLL registration conflict , can you check your windows event log and see if there are any messages produced when eraser crashes?
Eraser 5.x used MFC framework and was pure C++ . We migrated to .Net to keep up with UI changes in windows.
At this point any change would involve major effort, its better to concentrate on bug fixing the current .Net version.
