![]() Both methods found the exact same *.ini folders in the exact same locations. I located those *.ini folders both visually by looking through all the folders under C:\Program Files (x86)\, C:\Program Files\ C:\Program Data\ C:\Users\*.* and then down all the limbs of the tree for an IObit folder and by using "Search Everything" utility program. None of those four or five *.ini folders contain the information. I found four or five *.ini folders under an ASC V5, ASC V6, ASC w AV 2013 and ASCU top level folder. I have looked three times through all of the IObit folders with hidden folders turned off including Windows Protected OS folders and can find nothing in any *.ini folder like was mentioned above. On this computer, which has ASC-5 and Toolbox-1.2. There are several main.ini files under C:\Program Files (X86)\IObit\ ![]() I don't know if Windows Search will do that or not since I don't use it as it is a resource hog. Unfortunately I do not have an application that will allow me to do a global search for text within files unless Windows Search willd do that. under Users\Me\Documents and Settings, under Users\All Users\Documents and Settings, under Program Files (x86) and under Program Data but could not find a Main.ini file with the information you posted. I believe I have checked all the areas where the Main.ini file should be located i.e. There are two IObit folders under C:\Program Data\IObit\ One is ASC V5 and the other ASC V6. I don't believe I have a Main.ini file on the one computer I checked that has the information you posted that should be in the Main.ini file I also did a search for Main.ini using "Search Everything" I could not locate a Main.ini file with the information you posted. I then did a visual search for Main.ini in all the logical places it should be located in the Documents and Settings tree as well as in the Program Files (x86) tree and the Program Data tree. I gave myself persmissions where needed in order to access the unhidden protected OS files. I un-hid all my computer's hidden files including protected OS files. I do not know what the license file name is. Do you concur? Or can I just delete all the references and enter the license information for ASC w AV 2013 when I reinstall ASCU? I looks to me like I should uninstall ASCU and then delete all references on my computer to ASC V5, ASC V6 and ASC w AV 2013 except the license file. There is a Main.ini file in C:\Program Files (X86)\IObit\ASC w AV 2013 but no Main.ini file in C:\Program Files (X86)\IObit\ASCU The only thing that is in the Main.ini file under ASC w AV 2013 is something to do with DiskDoctor.

In reality, drive partitions, master boot records, operating systems, and software caches often retain deleted data creating a false sense of user security. Unfortunately, many falsely assume that simply deleting a file means it has been destroyed. While the shredded strips of a paper document can be painstakingly reassembled, a properly shredded piece of data is destroyed beyond recovery. When the time comes to delete a piece of data, a file shredder tool like BCWipe can do an even more effective job than its office namesake. In the digital age, sensitive information is more likely to be stored in a document file than on a paper document. These tools effectively turn paper into confetti so that the sensitive information on a page is unreadable. When to Use a File Shredder?įor nearly a century, shredders have been the standard office tool for destroying documents.
