Wiping a drive in Windows 10 is a classic tale of two realities. If you are simply trying to clean a drive to reinstall Windows or sell your PC, the built-in "Reset this PC" feature is a streamlined, user-friendly triumph. However, if you are a power user trying to securely wipe a secondary drive or an old spinning Hard Disk Drive (HDD) to Department of Defense standards, Windows 10’s native tools fall short, forcing you to look toward third-party software.
