I'm curious
if it would be safe to use on my SSD drive?

shaw, depends on what you mean by "safe" and what way you use it... if you use 35passes then while it is "safe" it is not good for the longevity of the SSD as properly implimented TRIM support by using a TRIM compatible operating system AND a TRIM compatible comunication channel like SATA or NVMe but NOT any form of USB caddy, then simply deleting a file bypassing the recycle bin will practically securely erase a file on an SSD as it's file allocations are unmapped from the addressable sectors and marked for electrical erasure before re-use.

I get this same error, no answers to original post so will just delete it I guess

What a con... This version adds the Tools category and the repair operation is just spawning chkdsk.exe !!!! chkdsk.exe does not repair any bad sectors, it finds, it just relocates the affected clusters to a fresh clusters and marks the entire affected cluster as BAD rather than remapping just the bad sector to one of the many spare sectors that magnetic hard drives are made with. So the CHKDSK.EXE repair loses an entire 4K cluster for every 512byte damaged sector rather than just losing the damaged 512bytes and not losing 4K new cluster.

Downloaded & installed successfully but was unable to activate over VPN. I stopped VPN and it activated OK.
I dislike companies that block VPN access.... even my (BigName) bank lets me in over VPN.

fake, doesn't let you activate even after you enter the code, rip

So, you download the program to the computer that you want to erase (hard drive)? Then when it's done, the program has been erased also?
Save | Cancel
P.R., possibly but hard drive total erasure is just one function. Erase Selected Files and Erase Free space are two other options that will be used far more often, forgive me for not being able to answer definitively but I am not willing to wipe a system drive just to see what happens. I would use DBAN if I wanted to wipe a system drive not an installed program. BTW this does NOT erase hard drives but individual partitions. Which means it is always possible that data may leak if some unorthodox software uses hard drive inter-partition and pre and post partition slack space to store secret data.

how can we use this on another device besides the one its installed on? i couldnt put it on a usb stick
Save | Cancel
alicia, errr take the storage media out of the other device and put it in a USB caddy and connect it to the machine with this program installed on? Or install this on that other machine too!
Save | Cancel
alicia, Why couldn't you put it on a USB stick? simplest way is to install it to your C: drive as normal, activate the license online so it creates the file Configure.dat in the installation folder and then copy the entire folder over to the USB flash drive. I tried stopping and disabling the non-plug and play driver "epmntdrv" and I was still able to erase files without the program using the driver for anything...

ERROR
"A REQUIRED PRIVALAGE NOT HELD BY THE CLIENT" when attempting to RUN the .EXE file.
I tried running it as Administrator, changed the settings in APPS, but no joy. Same error message.
Can anyone advise?
Thanks in advance. Stay Safe.

There is nowhere to register and it asked for you to enter your license code to upgrade from trial but does not provide one. Don't bother with this freebie

Worked great first time from context menu, next time I tried it comes up with, AweEraser Trial "AweEraser has been running" and I cannot clear this I have looked for previous occurrences, even checked to see if it it running in task manager, sorry thumbs down.

john cox, You are looking for the wrong process name! Look for the name main.exe. That error is reported if main.exe is running when you try and launch a fresh instance of main.exe which is the GUI for aweeraser and not aweEraser.exe as that executable is the one launched by the explorer context entry to Erase with AweEraser

Jimbo,
Il me semble qu'on peut comprendre de cette phrase que, tant qu'on ne met pas le programme à jour, la license reste valable... d'autant que d'ordinaire si la license est limitée, c'est générallement précisé.
It seems to me that we can understand from this sentence that, as long as we don't update the program, the license remains valid... if the license is limited, this is usually specified.

Jimbo, I don.t know where you come from but calling people derogatory names is called 'bullying'. Inappropriate and childish at any level.
