Wipe

[Got Some Question]

the wipe function can you explain how it works.
is it 1 time overwrite whipe or 7 time or 35. because if you can choose the user can
select what he want, 35 times is good but cost time. and when you use SSD the
wipe of 35 time isnt good for your ssd-disk i thought. if you get 7 its faster but not the most secure:)

  +++ Added Wipe, a method to delete files beyond recovery (at least by 
      conventional software-based forensic tools). This sort of deletion 
      is also known as Shred, Erase, Secure Delete, Nuke, etc.
      XYplorer's Wipe doesn't perform paranoid stuff like multiple passes 
      or random patterns, because instead of increasing security this is 
      just stressing your hardware. The following steps should be enough 
      to destroy a file permanently:
        1. Reset file attributes.
        2. Overwrite file with zeros (single pass).
        3. Set file size to zero.
        4. Rename file.
        5. Reset file dates.
        6. Delete file.
      You can trigger Wipe in three ways:
      - First, there is a normal menu command: File | File Special | 
        Delete (Wipe).
      - Second, there is the Nuke toolbar button which has configurable 
        properties in its right-click menu. Tick "Wiping Beyond 
        Recovery" to make the Nuke button a very dangerous tool.
      - Third, there is a Miscellaneous command Nuke (#1054) which can 
        be assigned a keyboard shortcut and acts the same as if the Nuke 
        toolbar button is pressed.
      Notes:  
      - Wipe supports overlong filenames (> 260 chars).
      - Wipe does NOT support files > 2GB.
      - You can also wipe whole folders. All files found within are 
        individually wiped. Then the folders are removed.
      - Toolbar | Nuke: When "Wiping Beyond Recovery" is ON, then "To 
        Recycler" is automatically disabled. Obviously the two cannot 
        coexist.
      - Take care: There is no undo for wipe. :)
