What Macrorit Data Wiper is
Macrorit Data Wiper is a Windows utility that overwrites storage sectors to erase data and prevent recovery. The free edition can wipe non-system disks, data partitions or volumes, external drives, and selected Recycle Bin contents. That Recycle Bin option is limited to files under 100 MB and fewer than five files. The maker lists six wiping methods and says its overwriting process meets US government requirements, including DoD 5220.22-M. Supported file systems include FAT16/32, NTFS, Ext2/3/4, ReFS, Apple HFS+, and others. The free edition supports Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP. Pro+ adds free-space wiping, system-partition wiping without bootable media, unlimited Recycle Bin wiping, and multiple-disk erasure. It also offers bootable media and lists support for IDE, SCSI, SATA, GPT and uEFI disks, USB flash drives, hardware RAID, and virtual disks in VMware, VirtualBox, and Virtual PC. Pro+ is $29.95, paid once for one computer; Unlimited is $99.95, paid once for multiple computers in one company. Optical discs must be pulverized, not wiped with the software.
