I can't seem to find an answer to this question.
If we have a file, and then we delete it, we have a recoverable file.
To make the deletion permanent, we would have to wipe the entire free space
of the hard drive. This is time consuming and seems unnecessary to me. The
hard disk is brand new, and have only used a small amount of the disk space.
To be wiping the entire disk just for one or two files seem absurd.
My question is, is there a way(a program/utililty whatever), that can find
the file that has been deleted(its location/sector/cluster) and wipe only
that specific (area/file) making it unrecoverable?
It seems once you make the mistake of not deleting the file by wiping,
you've lost your chance, and now you have to wipe the entire free space.
I would greatly appreciate any answer.

Mike
