QuickClean (Shredder) vs. standard Windows deletion
QuickClean completely erases the data you specify for deletion and leaves no traces on the hard drive. The data is unrecoverable, even if you use recovery software.
Standard Windows deletion removes the data and frees hard drive space on your computer, but it does so by deleting the record of the data in the index, not the data itself. It is often possible to recover the data using recovery software and tools unless Windows writes other data over the physical space on the hard drive that your data occupies.
