  1. Disable Secure-Delete for files in Windows 11


    Hi,I am using Windows 11 and wondering how can I disable the default behavior where the OS deletes the file in such a way that it can't be recoveredgenerally know as Secure-Delete.I tried Recuva to recover a normally deleted small-sized file that moved to Recycle Bin, and a large filesize > 10 GB that prompted a Permanent Delete confirmation dialog. I didn't perform any disk-write operation after successful deletion. Both of those files were securely deleted and I couldn't recover them. Though, I was able to see fully recoverable files those I deleted from Windows-7 OS.I want to turn th

    Deleting Hiberfil & Pagefile

    You would have to move your Page File to a different drive to get rid of that file, however you can make is smaller by adjusting the size in Windows.

    To get rid of Hyberfile.sys you need to disable hibernation by doing the following:

    • Click Start, and then type cmd in the Start Search box.
    • In the search results list, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as Administrator.
    • When you are prompted by User Account Control, click Continue.
    • At the command prompt, type powercfg.exe /hibernate off, and then press ENTER.
    • Type exit and then press ENTER to close the Command Prompt window
    Then you can delete the hyberfile.sys file.

  4. Disable Secure-Delete for files in Windows 11

    Windows 11 start menu 'suggested list' does not show files.

    After deleting a file from the Windows 11 Start Menu "Suggested List", it does not appear in the "Suggested List" even if the file is used again.

    Is there any solution other than initialization? I want you to tell me.
