Viewing the log files

Each time a shred or free space bleaching operation is performed, log files of any errors or failures are generated. The log files are always updated according to the latest shred or free space bleaching operation.

NOTE: Files that are successfully shredded or bleached do not appear in the log files.

One log file is created for shred operations, and another log file is created for free space bleaching operations. Both log files are located on the hard drive:

●C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\File Sanitizer\[Username]_ShredderLog.txt

●C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\File Sanitizer\[Username]_DiskBleachLog.txt For 64-bit systems, the log files are located on the hard drive:

●C:\Program Files (x86)\Hewlett-Packard\File Sanitizer\[Username]_ShredderLog.txt
