Uitgavegeschiedenis Eraser

Hieronder vindt u beschrijvingen van de wijzigingen en vernieuwingen in de opeenvolgende versies van Eraser.

Eraser 6.0.10.2620

Met Eraser is het mogelijk om bestanden op je pc definitief te verwijderen, zodat ze door niemand meer terug te vinden zijn. Als je gewoon de Windows-prullenbak leeggooit zijn bestanden namelijk met speciale herstelsoftware weer terug te vinden (zelfs na formatteren). Eraser vernietigt bestanden onherstelbaar door ze meerdere keren te overschrijven. Hierdoor zijn ze echt niet meer terug te vinden. Eraser is dus een soort digitale papierversnipperaar.

Eraser 6.0.10 is vandaag uitgebracht. Deze versie lost diverse fouten op en vergroot de stabiliteit van het programma. De update wordt aanbevolen door de makers van Eraser. Eraser is te downloaden voor Windows XP, Vista en 7.

Eraser 6.0.9.2343

Het is precies een jaar geleden dat de vorige versie van Eraser uitkwam. Eraser 6.0.9 heeft geen nieuwe functionaliteit. Deze versie van de gratis bestandsversnipperaar lost alleen enkele fouten op en repareert een crash en een geheugenlek.
 
Met Eraser is het mogelijk om bestanden op uw pc onherstelbaar te vernietigen zodat ze niet terug te vinden zijn. Eraser is te downloaden voor Windows XP, Vista en 7.

Eraser 6.0.7.1893
