How can I safely delete any potential data left in the “free space” on my hard disk?

To do this, choose the partition from which you wish to wipe the free space from the Windows Explorer and select the function “Secure Deletion of Free Disk Space” from the Context Menu and confirm. By this process, all free disk space is overwritten and already deleted files annihilated, making it possible to remove any trace of sensitive data you thought had already been erased.
