Delete normally and then use bleachbit to "wipe free space" with 3 passes or 7 if you really want to be sure. It will make it irrecoverable.

Open cmd with Administrator privileges.
Then enter:

cipher /w:C:\

C is the letter of your harddrive where you want to securely overwrite the free diskspace on.

That will overwrite 3 times your free diskspace, which should be secure enough.

Just format the whole drive and wipe out everything over .

If it is a software you are trying to erase completely including all its left over files, footprints and bs, Advanced Uninstaller PRO is your friend. Don't mind the pro appended to its name. You will almost always get it for free on the internet. Just google it.

SHIFT + DEL + KEROSEN.

On a serious note, if you know you have important docs there, keep an eye on the memory drive, or make sure it properly destroyed (hammer&stuff).

You only need to do one wipe for the data to be unrecoverable.

Use Active@ KillDisk for full disk wipes. For individual files/folders you can use SDelete from SysInternals (Windows)

blank and secure is a good freeware for that. Set to overwrite 35 times.

35 is 34 times more than is actually needed to wipe data that can't be recovered.

Yeah its free and takes seconds so why not
