[QUOTE="Iron Maiden, post: 1494732, member: 293664"] Hi, hope someone can help me. There were 2 files I downloaded from my e mail recently (jpeg and rar) and I need to make sure they are permanently gone. I haven't realised that once you clear it from your HD they are still recoverable. I have made sure they are gone from all folders and I emptied trash then (not secure option) . if I perform a search now, they do not show. I have looked up the tutorials on you tube but they all seem to show you how to delete files permanently whilst you still have them. Does anyone know what I am I supposed to do to make sure they are gone forever but they don't appear on my HD? Thanks (mac book pro) [/QUOTE]
