Hello,

 

Yesterday i ran the Very Complex overwrite (35 passes) of the drive wiper.

 

It filled my drive (D) and no empty space exists.

 

I know it was supposed to delete all the dummy files toward completion, but thing is - My PC Restarted due to electicity issues.

 

Now my drive (D) is full.

 

Where can i find those dummy files in order to delete them, and how?

 

Thanks,

Eficpa

I believe that it is, or they are, in the root directory. Look for a long random-character file name with the correct created date. And please, one pass will do fine - torturing a pc should be a hate crime.
