Expand the System Components item in the System Clean-up tree and make sure that the
component you wish to clean up is selected. If you do not want to clean up a component, simply
clear its check box.
If required, you can dig deeper by expanding a component and selecting/unselecting its contents.
Having specified the components for clean-up, click the Clean-up button to continue.
Windows Vista and Windows 7 do not keep information on file and computer searches. Furthermore,
information on opened/saved files is stored in the registry differently, so the wizard shows this information in a
different way.
8.8.3.5 Clean-up progress
The operation status window reports about the state of the current operation.
The progress bar indicates the level of completion of the selected operation.
In some cases, the operation may take a long time to be completed. If this is the case, select the
Shutdown the computer after completion check box. When the operation finishes, True Image 2013
will turn the computer off.
8.8.4 Hard Disk Wiping methods
Information removed from a hard disk drive by non-secure means (for example, by simple Windows
delete) can easily be recovered. Utilizing specialized equipment, it is possible to recover even
repeatedly overwritten information. Therefore, guaranteed data wiping is more important now than
ever before.
The guaranteed wiping of information from magnetic media (e.g. a hard disk drive) means it is
impossible to recover data by even a qualified specialist with the help of all known tools and recovery
methods.
This problem can be explained in the following way: Data is stored on a hard disk as a binary
sequence of 1 and 0 (ones and zeros), represented by differently magnetized parts of a disk.
Generally speaking, a 1 written to a hard disk is read as 1 by its controller, and 0 is read as 0.
However, if you write 1 over 0, the result is conditionally 0.95 and vice versa if 1 is written over 1
the result is 1.05. These differences are irrelevant for the controller. However, using special
equipment, one can easily read the «underlying» sequence of 1's and 0's.
It only requires specialized software and inexpensive hardware to read data "deleted" this way by
analyzing magnetization of hard disk sectors, residual magnetization of track sides and/or by using
current magnetic microscopes.
Writing to magnetic media leads to subtle effects summarized as follows: every track of a disk stores
an image of every record ever written to it, but the effect of such records (magnetic layer) becomes
more subtle as time passes.
