Of course, then you would have to re-install everything..but, again personally, I would do that. Who knows what word doc or file may be hidden somewhere... Rather safe than sorry. Have a great day!

I would be pretty sure stuff would be safe to the average computer user correct? IS there a way (CHEAP) to make the computer completely safe to give away? Thanks again SandyLea Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

If they are not, then any portion that was overwritten during the defrag will not be recoverable. Portions NOT overwritten may still be recoverable with special software or techniques that would likely be too much work or too expensive for the typical consumer computer user.
