Product snapshot

MacUncle Data Wipe is a macOS utility designed to permanently remove files and folders before selling, donating, or transferring a computer. It provides a straightforward interface for queuing individual items or whole folders for irreversible deletion, helping users protect private information.

Core functionality

  • Queue single files or entire directories for secure removal.
  • Apply filters to narrow which items are included in a wipe.
  • Choose from several overwrite strategies to ensure data cannot be recovered.
  • Preview items selected for deletion before confirming the operation.

Overwrite methods available

  • Multiple military-standard overwrite routines (several passes).
  • Random-pattern overwrites to make recovery difficult.
  • Single-pass zero-fill (zeroing out data).

Try-before-you-buy and compatibility

  • A trial is available that permits removal of up to 10 files, each no larger than 5 MB.
  • Compatible with macOS back to OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) and later releases.

Alternate recommendation

If you need a paid, professional application for related tasks (for example, image or content preparation prior to device transfer), consider Adobe Photoshop (paid) as an alternative.
