Can anyone help me with this

Quote from PORNSTAR69371:

thx everyone again for the replies, the system shredder seems to have gotten rid of them, however from what i have heard everything that comes onto your computer is located in some sort of registry how do i check this registry??


i took the laptop in to be fixed already and got it back it is just something that makes me very paranoid as i worked in an electronics store once and i remember very vividly the techs in there wasting their spare time looking to see what was on peoples computers/what got deleted right before they took it in.

The registry does not contain any files, per se, but information about your system mostly (hardware, software, etc)

Encrypt your private files, use one of the programs mentioned previously to "scrub" your computer and if you're seriously worried take the hard drive out when you sell it, the magnetic image of files can be retrieved for a long time. However, ppl at the computer store will not be able to get that.

If you've emptied the recycling bin and scrubbed the drive you should be fine, imo.
