I am turning in an old Windows 7 computer that I used to use to my employer. I would like to wipe the computer clean of all user files and data. How do I do this?
I only have one account on the computer and that's the administrator account. When I go to Control Panel > User Accounts I see my administrator account, but there's no option for deleting it, or wiping the files and deleting the data.
I'm assuming there's some built-in mechanism for deleting an account or wiping the data clean. I assume that I don't have to manually delete all the files myself, which would be laborious and probably leave some files or cache data behind.
What's the best way to do this?
