How does it work and how much?

BleachBit is a free and open-source disk space cleaner, privacy manager, and computer system optimizer.

 

My advice would be don't use it. But if you do, let us know how it works out.

@Bench

There are 100 little utilities like this to use to clean/wipe a drive. Nothing any more special about this one except for the fact that it was used to break federal law.

Stick to the Software Discussion!!!

 

Only Warning!

I asked for that, that one is on me JD.

My apologies anyway, I wasn't really starting any political opinion as much as I was pointing out that had this little bit of code not been what was used to wipe Hilary's server, then no one would know or care what it was unless you were in my line of work.

True

I had never heard of it until Hillary used it.

Was wondering if it was some secret stuff not can it be bought at a store.

Seems Bleachbit is a cousin to the more well know ccleaner. Both are available on cnet and are more just ordinary clean-up tools. They are not 'disk wiping' utilities. I have used ccleaner on windows systems for a long while.

 

Even the disk-wipe utilities that are designed to completely eliminate any physical trace of remnant data are nothing secret. There is plenty of freeware on cnet for that.
