    If you have a USB Flash drive that you want to giveaway, make sure you wipe the data first, doing a simple quick format will not securely erase all the data and could easily be recovered with free data recovery software like recuva. In this video I will show you a free way to erase data permanently.

    I owe you my life! I was struggling for HOURS on this, and you were literally the only person that was able to help me. I had about 4 files (both were around 3gb) that wouldn't delete no matter what, but thanks to you, they are now finally gone! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

    • @Britec09
      @Britec09  5 лет назад +1

      I would not use registry cleaners and as for ccleaner, its a popular program for cleaning junk files from the system, windows 10 can do that itself with built in tools.

    If you are not in the mood to change registry or like that : I solved this problem without going to registry or like that...make it short...each time I connect the sandisk to my desktop all deleted flash drive files come back ...solution : let them come back, delete them again ...add your favorite music files or whatever and eject your sandisk from your desktop...at this time there are no flash drive files there and you can play all those music in your car radio system (usb port) with no problem...the moment you connect your sandisk to your desktop again all those flash drive files come back...don't worry, repeat what I said above
