►►►SUBSCRIBE for more: www.youtube.co...
If you have a USB Flash drive that you want to giveaway, make sure you wipe the data first, doing a simple quick format will not securely erase all the data and could easily be recovered with free data recovery software like recuva. In this video I will show you a free way to erase data permanently.

I owe you my life! I was struggling for HOURS on this, and you were literally the only person that was able to help me. I had about 4 files (both were around 3gb) that wouldn't delete no matter what, but thanks to you, they are now finally gone! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

[@thissuckslikeanoob637]

Damn bruh what was you hidin?? 🤨🤨🤨

[@xHustleHaRdx]

[@OfficialRedTeamReview]

@@xHustleHaRdx when he opens up cCleaner it shows his system settings

[@xHustleHaRdx]

@@OfficialRedTeamReview wow. I see it now. I've never seen anybody with that much memory before. That's amazing.

[@rupertwhitehouse6029]

[@stevelarkin3285]

Hello Brian another very informative vid thank you, just a quick question, can you use the same procedure on sd cards

[@Britec09]

Yes

[@eyadalakhras]

Thank you for the information. Just for say, cipher /w:X does NOT shred a USB stick, although after graceful eject. Data was be recovered.

[@RobertKeenanComp-U-Right]

WOW Brian, 48GB RAM, you go man!

[@Britec09]

Need it for my virtual machines

[@Bladerunner4511]

Another useful video Brian just a quick question would you still use cleaner to clean up registry on Windows 10 it seems to be subject to lots of different opinions thanks again have a great one

[@Britec09]

I would not use registry cleaners and as for ccleaner, its a popular program for cleaning junk files from the system, windows 10 can do that itself with built in tools.

[@parmesan9761]

Thank you I found a flash drive yesterday with photos & videos of my ex and I, l didn't want to relieve fromyears ago. Also being happily remarried to my true love I couldn't cause her that pain if she saw 💔 it. Thanks I'll use it for new memories 😊

[@ollychap1985]

Great advice as always Brian 😁

[@Britec09]

Thanks Oliver

[@mikesunboxing]

Great video and i never thought to use CCleaner in this way. Does it work in the free edition?

[@Britec09]

Yes you can do it on the free vision

[@polestar696]

You got me worried now ! I didn't realise that a quick format didn't erasure everything. I gave my daughter some of my flash drives the other day. Nothing naughty on them possibly bank stuff. Oops. Thanks for a great video britec.

[@Britec09]

You're welcome.

[@mirkotuksa2235]

[@kaedeharaorkai]

Dude thank you so much... I bought a new flash drive and for some reason it already has files in it and it is SO annoying to delete it one by one

[@pj89-96]

Same!!

[@matthewday7565]

One ohnosecond, the time between hitting the button and realizing you had the wrong drive selected!

[@mcscotty325]

Wow! Thanks. Finally got rid of the malware on the USB.

[@bobharrison9620]

Ok this is wierd, I keep bring up your Vidios when I need a repair.. Your teaching is a method I can follow, keep it up please. Bob

[@user-zk6xz]

Can you make a video on deleting videos or files in pendrive from mobile?

[@user-gm8oj5iv8x]

Sir how to transfer pendrive data into mobile and make pendrive storage empty , means i want to remove data from pendrive for a while and then i want to again put that

[@bison345]

Cheers Brian, didn't know you could use CCleaner to do this. Don

[@adventuretour9133]

Hi, Britec09, can you tell me the first method of formatting to Fat32 offers in advantage in deleting files?

[@terrymcgill43]

Hi Brian, I use active KillDisk to security erase my USB drives. Very useful information, well done.

[@Britec09]

KillDisk is pretty good as well Terry, loads of options

[@laagansijyechannel9765]

Okay so simply formatting the flash drive is insufficient, aside from that we still need CCleaner? Thanks for the time reading this. Appreciate if i received a response.

[@sheadiggs9355]

Been dealing w this s for 2 whole days. Thanks bro

[@GranolahOfficial]

Amazing help, Thanks very much 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@hananetliouant9218]

I have a virus in my flash drive if i delete the files in it using this method is the virus will be deleted too ?

[@manooch]

If you are not in the mood to change registry or like that : I solved this problem without going to registry or like that...make it short...each time I connect the sandisk to my desktop all deleted flash drive files come back ...solution : let them come back, delete them again ...add your favorite music files or whatever and eject your sandisk from your desktop...at this time there are no flash drive files there and you can play all those music in your car radio system (usb port) with no problem...the moment you connect your sandisk to your desktop again all those flash drive files come back...don't worry, repeat what I said above

[@satyatmaacharya5384]

Very very thanks

[@robertogarza1136]

Thx dude your a big help

[@steve45295]

After unchecking the quick format when all items are deleted ,do you check the quick format Box to start again

[@BoyFromMa]

Oh! it's C Cleaner? All these years I used to call it CC Cleaner 🤣🤣🤣

[@LeoMessi-xn5mz]

I can't format.. They are saying that the disk is writr protected.. How to solve it?

[@yogeswaransirramayasuppiah1402]

There is no way of recovering back your deleted data right? This is a full data complete deletion? Even the forensic can't recover back the full data rite?

[@stevencabrera8165]

It doesnt let me over write it says files dont qork

[@Shivam_3567]

I dis ctrl+a and del now my pendrive is not making bootable what i should do

[@khooricky-be5bz]

ccleaner can't clean ssd, only for mechanical drive ,so i use heidi eraser ,but after use it for a few time only ,it can't be opened anymore ,when i right click on the disk volume in this pc ,most of the time will take at least >20 seconds ,sometime >30 >40 to showup

[@dasphyzie96]

But after doing all these processes, the files keep coming back in my own case, what else can I do?

[@zachhutson7419]

I have my usb plugged in but on ccleaner it doesn’t show up to be able to wipr

[@Harley--Quinn]

Thank you, thank you, thank you so much!!! I love how thorough you were and your detailed explanation! Most vids are so fast you can't keep up with them, super annoying. But not yours, this was perfect thank you! 🩷

My USB stick shows that it has deleted my files on my laptop however when I connect it to my car aux , it keeps showing deleted files. Any advice?

[@munibkhan2581]

Same problem

[@tracyjohnson8057]

None of these methods or any other I've found will clear this thumb drive. It will allow me to transfer the files, or add files but it won't let me delete the files once they're on it.

[@freycz]

I have question, i install windows 10 on flash drive, but i have files in flash drive. And Windows 10 MediaCreationTool deleted, Can i file backup ?

I installed the cccleaner went through the steps, it is sitting at 0%, Not doing anything.

[@monokumaultimate.8319]

Hi Brian, I have Silicon power gb pen.I got copied movies and software isos in it.Few days ago when i plug in to my pc most of the files have been lost. even i tried recovery apps it cannot get my lost data..what may be the reason for it?

[@lotusvi]

thanks! i really need some space for stuff thanks britech

[@killertigergaming6762]

Btw overwriting it multiple times is pointless 1 time will overwrite it well and it's impossible to recover

[@love_travelling]

Thanks for this nice advice

[@nick92065]

I did the CCleaner drive wipe 3 passes. Recuva was able to recover 25 files.

[@Britec09]

Did you do full format first, then ccleaner?

[@williamlindsay8986]
