Muutokset v4.1.2 - Technology Preview v5.0.4
- Major Changes
- Major updates include:
- Device Wiping is Now Free
- Hard wiping at the physical device level was previously a paid feature in version 5, but is now free in V5. The key utility of Hardwipe, namely to securely wipe files, drives, and clean free space will always be free. Some advanced features, such as verification and logging, may require an upgrade.
- Clear the Windows Pagefile
- A long-planned update to make clearing the system page-file easy makes its debut in V5.
- Hardwipe Command Line Utility
- There is a brand new command line utility (aka "Hardwipe Commander") which ships with the software. This makes it easy, for example, to automate data sanitization in conjunction with the Windows Task Scheduler. There is an interim user guide for this feature available here. Hardwipe Commander will be a "professional" feature that will operate in a non-erasing mode until a paid upgrade is taken out. If you're interested in trying out the command line, please drop a mail to support.
- Portable Edition
- The Portable Edition was a feature of early Hardwipe versions. In V5, it is re-introduced and targets 32-bit machines and Windows XP. Significantly, the Portable Edition is designed to be used in conjunction with Windows PE to deliver a fully bootable Hardwipe solution which can be used to wipe the primary drive of any computer. A Portable Edition V5 Preview can be downloaded here, but you will need an upgrade key to use it. Customers who have previously purchased an upgrade should dig out their license key email!
- Removed Pesky Ads for Third-Party Products
- Replaced third-party ads in the free version with more friendlier reminder notices to upgrade and click "like" on Facebook etc. Upgrading gets rid of these.
- Improvements to the Interface
- There's been a lot of work to improve the user interface and integrate better with the Windows File Explorer. You will also find some new "color themes" in the configuration options allowing you to personalize Hardwipe.
