sweep hard drive

[CrossLOPER]

well i just did a system restore and to my utter dissapoint ment kept all my files even though i wanted them all gone

What did you do, exactly? What is the point of what you are trying to do?

so i deleted those but there is a hidden file somewhere on my computer and its taking up 20 of my 34 gigs and i want it gone

Dude, you can't have a hard drive with Windows on it and have it be empty. Maybe I'm not understanding. What programs do you have installed and give me your system specs. Somethings not right.

Something like this can completely and irrevocably erase your drive. But, before you do something like that, make sure you know how to reinstall your OS and get everything running again.

Giving Jk that was probably not a good idea.

Out of curiosity, how do you know there's a file if it's hidden?

I'm pretty sure he's trying to remove his Windows install without knowing it.
