    I want to wiper only in single folder and giving to expert recover


    I've lost all files like important photos and videos,docs etc. So that I'm giving my laptop to the expert to get back my photos,videos etc. What I want is I want to wipe data in single folder becuase of p*rn films are stored in that folder so that I don't want to show up to the expert while recovering. Can I wipe that single folder that he can't recover these p*rn files right?
    Suggest the software please
    Thank you waiting very urgent reply

    Unless that folder has every sector, every byte, overwritten with Zero or whatever character, it is possible to bring back everything you deleted. There are free utilities that include a wipe free space function with varying degrees of overwrite. CCleaner is one of many. When you deleted that folder, that folder becomes free space. Many, not all, utilities have the ability to be aimed at a specific folder or file - to do a security wipe.

    The chances are extremely high that attempting to wipe files will corrupt the data you want to recover. The standard rule when you have deleted files you want to recover is to make as little change as possible, since any action may overwrite the deleted files

    Hello @remostalin,

    . . . I want is I want to wipe data in single folder . . .

    What you could do is to Cut & Paste the Folder to an External HDD.

    If YOU Downloaded the films, I would also Clear the Cookies, Internet Temp Files, Cache etc etc. This way [ if there are going to look ], it will not be as easy.

    I hope this helps.

    I have copied files to WD drive and suddenly formatted. Can I get back 100% media files with this software?

    EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard Pro

    So you are saying that cut and paste to like Wd drive that won't recover from the laptop?

    Chrome and other Internet explorer doesn't matter.

    Guys, I think we are all correct from our perspectives. The only way to safely prevent overwriting of the desired folder/pics to have recovered is to use another computer to create a portable version of CCleaner or any comparable utility, "aim" that utility at the X-files folder to secure wipe the X-files folder. I think any portable version residing on USB stick should do the job.
    However, this might be overthink. Most if not all recovery experts do not care one whit what is recovered, most if not all are super busy and do not take time to look at recovered files. Once they take a sample of two or each type of file (gif, jpg, wav, etc.), become convinced recovery was successful, they move onto the next client.

    If the Folder is NOT on the Disk, then there is nothing to look at, or am I missing something?

    If YOU Download the films, and YOU do NOT want them to know that, then all I was suggesting was to try and get rid of the evidence as best you can.

    I hope this helps.
