5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Why do I need BitRaser File Eraser?

BitRaser File Eraser is a well-equipped software with proven overwriting techniques and is developed with advanced erasure features that makes the recovery of your deleted data irrecoverable. It safely erases your system's deleted data, unrequired files and folders and also safeguards your privacy. 

2. I am having trouble using BitRaser File Eraser on my Windows 7 or Windows 8 computer. What can I do?

To successfully run BitRaser File Eraser on the Windows 7 or Windows 8 computer, make sure that your Windows is up to date with the latest Microsoft Windows updates.

3. Is it safe to use BitRaser File Eraser for erasing deleted data from my system?

Yes, it is secure to use BitRaser File Eraser to erase deleted data from your system. 

4. What if data of the application traces are not erased after the complete erasure process?

It happens in case, you have not closed the application during erasing process or if you are viewing newly created files and folders after the application has restarted on completion of an erasure process.

5. Can I erase a specific file using BitRaser File Eraser?

6. Does BitRaser File Eraser remove data beyond recovery?

Yes, BitRaser File Eraser removes data beyond recovery.

7. What if the data of System Traces are not erased after completion of an erasure process?

This problem arises in case you are viewing the recently created files or folders, as the operating system automatically creates some system traces at different time intervals.

8. Which algorithm should I choose for best erasure?

It depends upon how many times an algorithm overwrites the data precisely or the number of passes used to erase the data. More the number of passes used by the algorithm, more effective it is. Each algorithm performs a different set of features from where you can choose the suitable algorithm as per the requirement. See Erasure Algorithms, to know more.

9. What if the software is taking too long to erase the data?

It depends on the size of the data you are erasing, configuration of the system and the algorithm you are using to erase the data. A large amount of data, lesser configuration and more number of passes may consume more time for erasure.

10. I don't want to clear all my Internet activities. How can I do that?

BitRaser File Eraser provides you with an option of erasing all or some specific traces of Internet Activities.
