How to Use ZDelete.NET for Windows Explorer

ZDelete.NET for Windows Explorer allows you to ZDelete.NET data in a file, folder or group of items from within Windows Explorer.

After engaging ZDelete.NET, there will a confirmation screen asking to support your intention to destroy the data (this option may be turned off in ZDelete.NET Wizard).

The process will start if confirmed.

Note:

If several items are selected, the confirmation screen asks for confirmation only to start the process as defined, not to confirm each item within the definition.

Before engaging ZDelete.NET, you can change the selection of items by learing or enabling checkmarks next to the item using mouse or keyboard.

In this example the only MY DOCUMENT.DOC file will be zdeleted.

If ZDelete.NET is removing a folder, all contents of the folder including subfolders (if they exist) will be destroyed. Once all contents are destroyed, the folder itself is deleted.

If the program encounters errors while data ZDeleting is in progress (e.g., you do not have correct rights for access to a particular file, or this file is being used in another application) an error message will be displayed similar to the figure below:

You can ignore this item and continue the process, abort (stop) process at this point, or fix the problem (for example insert diskette) and retry again.

While ZDeleting is in progress, a progress screen monitors activity. The process may be cancelled by clicking Cancel on the screen or [Esc] on the keyboard.
