destruction algorithm» and 1.7 «Data Clean-up Algorithms»).
To delete user files, Acronis PrivacyExpert enables you to select a data
destruction algorithm, specify «Files» setting value and the
user folder list
to
clean.
To select a list of folders and files to clean with Acronis PrivacyExpert::
1. select
Custom Folders/Files List

clicking
Add

Attention!
Please be careful --
the selected folders will be completely wiped out! All
their files will be unrecoverably destroyed!
