Purpose If you clean computer's Recycle Bin, the files and folders are not deleted forever. Anyone can use special recovery software and restore any deleted data. Yes, this is true. Any deleted file still exists on the hard disk until will be overwritten with other data, for example with data of some other file.

The main reason why it should be done this way - is that Windows writes files to any place on the hard disk - to the end of free space, to the beginning, in the middle... And the result is that deleted files located everywhere on disk! That's why it's to fill
