Frequently Asked Questions
Can PrivaZer recover deleted files?
No. Its secure deletion features are specifically designed to make previously deleted data difficult or impossible to recover. If you need to restore accidentally deleted files, use a dedicated data recovery utility before securely erasing the storage space.
Is PrivaZer safe to use?
Yes, when its cleaning options are reviewed carefully before they are applied. Because it can remove browser histories, temporary data, deleted-file traces, registry information, and other system records, aggressive cleaning may remove information you intended to keep.
Can PrivaZer securely erase an SSD?
Yes. It detects the type of storage device and adapts its overwriting approach for different media, including SSDs and magnetic hard drives. It is also listed as compatible with both HDD and SSD storage.
What is the difference between PrivaZer and CCleaner?
Both are Windows cleanup utilities, but they emphasize different areas. PrivaZer focuses heavily on privacy traces, residual data, secure deletion, and deep cleaning, while CCleaner provides a broader general-purpose PC cleanup and maintenance toolkit.
