Working with sensitive data might require you to occasionally delete content, yet still be cautious about it, because it might land in the wrong hands. While there are a few ways of securely removing your files while leaving no traces behind, wiping is still one of the most convenient methods.

If you find yourself in the situation above, you might consider relying on a wiping tool, such as BCWipe Total WipeOut, that can help you achieve satisfactory results fast.

This application provides you with two components, one that you can run from your desktop, which allows you to configure and burn a bootable disc or USB, and another that actually runs the utility from the media you created.

The configuration utility packs a plain, outdated user interface and it comes as a traditional configuration wizard. You can choose between several options, such as running the application in interactive mode or automatically wipe the selected drives before system startup.

It is possible to export the utility to an ISO file that can be burned on a CD or a DVD, but you can also set the application to create a bootable USB drive.

BCWipe Total WipeOut displays various details about your disk, such as device name, capacity, model, serial number and features. In case you find any of its options confusing, you can easily browse help documentation by simply pressing “?” on your keyboard.

This application provides you with a menu where you can select the wiping scheme and set options by toggling certain values on or off. After all parameters have been set, you can easily wipe your disk by accessing the corresponding function from the Disk menu.

In addition, this program creates logs every time you run it, so that you can easily keep track of any occurring events.

To sum it up, BCWipe Total WipeOut is a handy utility that can help you securely remove all the content from your disk, but be aware that using it to its full extent might require advanced PC operating skills.
