Hi David & Al, Yes that is true but, you can wipe all the free space on the boot drive & that's what I'm having trouble with. If I choose the, Simple Overwrite 1 Pass option, the wipe completes successfully but, any more passes than 1 & that's when I get the message I mentioned in my original post. You can choose Simple Overwrite 1 Pass, Advanced Overwrite 3 Passes, Complex Overwrite 7 Passes or, Very Complex Overwrite 35 Passes. I can only get the single pass to complete. Thank you very much for your reply. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.

At least I have never seen it work before. It has to be a secondary drive.

Sent: Monday, August 04, 2014 4:52 PM To: Jaws-Users List Subject: [JAWS-Users] CCleaner & Its Drive Wiper Tool Hi All, I am trying to use CCleaner's Drive Wiper tool & keep getting the following message at around 50% when using the Advanced or Complex Overwrite options: *** CCleaner The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file. OK *** Jaws does not tell me which process is locking out the Drive Wiper process. Is CCleaner supposed to show me which process is locking out the Drive Wiper process & Jaws just is not able to see it? I have tried with both my Anti Virus disabled & enabled with the same results. I'm running XP Pro Jaws 13, & CCleaner 4.16. Has anyone ran across this & knows what process might be causing the locking out of the Drive Wiper process? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.
