How can I erase files that have been emptied from recycle bin with drive erase pro?

Question

These are the only files I want to wipe. I do not want to wipe my entire hard drive and lose everything on it; however I do not know where to look for these deleted files. Or is there anything else I can do to save all my media files, documents, etc. and wipe only the emptied recycle bin files?

I do not know about the program that you mention here but I have used another free program called Restoration to do the job. Please read about my experiences with the software on the following pages

You can delete the empty folders and also empty the recycle bin. I can give you a link that deals with hard drive problems.

Some drive problems can be easily fixed by yourself using easily available tools. I found the info at http://fixit.in/ useful. Try this site, if you can get what is required.

You files that have been emptied from your recycle bin go to C:\RECYCLER. You can use a "secure delete" option from many software to fully overwrite these.
