I was running the trial version yesterday and decided to try the securely delete/wipe files option in Ace Utilities. My computer froze up during the process, and now says that my trial has run out! Not only that, in my properties it says that my computer is full. I do plan to buy the product, but I can't right at this moment. Since it says my trial ran out, I can't get back into it to read how to fix this situation! How do I fix my pc so that it reads correctly? I know I've only used up about 1/4 of the space on my computer.... Thanks!

hi

Open the drive you were wiping in explorer. You will see a folder called AWFSTMP. Delete it.

Thank you! Worked immediately without even a restart!
