Wipe Your Old Computer Before Disposing Of It

With the transition from Windows 10 computers to Windows 11 many people are looking at disposing of their computers , but what is the safe way to do this?

Use Windows 10 Built-In “Reset this PC” (with secure erase option)

  1. Go to Start → Settings → Update & Security → Recovery.

  2. Under Reset this PC, click Get started.

  3. Choose Remove everything.

  4. Then pick Remove files and clean the drive.

    • This option writes random data over the drive, making it very difficult for someone to recover your info.

    • It takes longer but is the safer choice.
