S Malik Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 I think there should be an option to send the found junk files to the Recycle Bin. MarthaBlina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisecleaner_admin Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Hey S Malik, Thanks for your suggestion. But, why do you want these junk files be sent to the Recycle Bin? Send junk files to the Recycle Bin, it won't free up the disk space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Send junk files to the Recycle Bin, it won't free up the disk space. Secure deletion option in the program actually does not work as its name suggests. I have another program that wipes files in the Recycle Bin securely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisecleaner_admin Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Hey S Malik, I think you misunderstood 'Secure deletion'. It doesn't mean remove junk files to Recycle Bin. Secure deletion - If you want to permanently remove the junk files, and don't want them to be recovered by data recovery software, please check this option. However, if you check this option, the deleting process will be slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wiped junk files using your Disk Cleaner. I was able to find those files intact using Recuva (https://www.piriform.com/recuva). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
