Once you’ve told Darik’s Boot and Nuke to wipe your data, then that is exactly what it’ll do. There’s no hand-holding here, no endless "are you sure?" prompts, no reminders of just how much data you’re about to lose. However you’re using the program, it’s important to be careful. When you’re happy with the settings, press F10 to start the overwrite process. ![]() Here you can configure details like the wipe method (Quick Erase, RCMP TSSIT OPS-II, DoD Short, DoD 5220-22-M, Gutmann Wipe, PRNG Stream), number of passes, the drive to be wiped, whether you want to verify your data’s destruction, and more. If you need more control, press Enter to launch Darik’s Boot and Nuke’s "interactive mode". ![]() If you want to wipe every drive connected to the system, for example, just type autonuke when prompted, press Enter, and wait as the program overwrites your data. The program has a text-based interface, and so doesn’t exactly look pretty, but read the prompts and it’s reasonably easy to use.
