if you are worried about data being recovered, you can delete all of your files and then run the cypher program to write 1's, 0's and random data to the drive. Or, remove the drive and smash it with a hammer.
I will usually create a new admin account, delete the old account and then run the cypher program to wipe out the personal data. I have several old Phenom II systems still running Win10; they work just fine however won't work with Win11 without a lot of jumping thru hoops to get it installed. Maybe I will install Linux on one and see what I think of that. Most everything is not usable in a new system. Take it to a place like MRC recycling instead of just throwing it in the trash. If it's still usable, perhaps donate it. |
