How to Delete Files on SSD Permanently in Windows 10, 8, 7?

Geeks - To delete files on an SSD permanently in Windows 10, 8, or 7, you can use the built-in secure delete feature called "Securely Delete" or "Eraser". To use this feature, follow these steps:

Open File Explorer and navigate to the folder that contains the file you want to delete.

Right-click on the file and select "Properties" from the context menu.

In the Properties window, go to the "General" tab and click on the "Advanced" button.

In the Advanced Attributes window, check the box next to "Securely delete the file when it's no longer needed" and click "OK".

Click "OK" again to close the Properties window.

Delete the file as you normally would by pressing the "Delete" key on your keyboard or using the "Delete" option in the context menu.

This will securely delete the file, making it impossible to recover using normal means. Keep in mind that this process can take some time, depending on the size of the file and the speed of your SSD.
