Figure 15: Disk examination progress
As seen in the image above, the green progress bar will fill the virtual drive slot in the KillDisk application. The
percentage of the examination completed and the estimated completion time will also be shown in the slot. Once
this process completes, the word "Examined" will flash in yellow in the slot space and the Erase procedure will
begin.
When erasing completes you can review results for the processed disks.
