However, clicking on the Erase Schedule option will help you get started. You can choose from various task types, such as manual, immediate, or recurring tasks. Adding data to erase is simple - just select the file, folder, unused space, or recycle bin that you want to erase and click OK.The speed of the erasing process depends on the size of the data and the type of erasing method chosen. Eraser offers a wide range of erase options, including methods like Gutman and US Air Force, which provide higher levels of security.
