MindVaultEraser™ / Features in practice
From choosing files
to checking the outcome.
Choose the files, understand the plan and keep the operation record. Here is how the features fit into your day.
Choosing the deletion methodHDD, SSD, NVMe. Which method should you use?
EraseIQ™
EraseIQ™ is the deletion planning mechanism. It identifies the storage type and selects a supported method while accounting for the medium’s limitations.

The operation recordWhat did the application actually do?
Chain of Custody™
Chain of Custody™ is a local record of the operation’s stages: accepted files, the plan, actions performed and the outcome. It connects these details into one workflow with consistency checks for its entries.

Quick Capture
The files are on your desktop. Why find them again?
With Quick Capture active, hold Ctrl and drag a selection with the left mouse button on the desktop or in File Explorer. When you complete the gesture, the app moves accepted files to the special folder.
- Hold Ctrl.
- Drag a selection using the left mouse button.
- Release the mouse button while holding Ctrl.
This moves the files rather than creating another copy. With automation off, you start deletion yourself. Enabled Pro automation may start deletion according to your configured rules.

Your storage type matters.
On SSDs and flash storage, the controller manages physical data writes. Deleting individual files cannot guarantee that every memory cell is cleared. Cloud copies, backups and copies elsewhere require separate removal.

MatechCode Engineering
Tools built
for control.
MatechCode is an independent project by Mateusz Tonkowicz. We are developing the MindVault series for people and teams who want to make informed decisions about their data. MindVaultEraser is the first product in the series.
We focus on local processing, understandable messages and an honest description of capabilities. Product questions go directly to the developer.
Does it work with SSDs?
Yes. The plan takes SSDs and flash storage into account. Controller limitations mean that deleting an individual file cannot guarantee clearing every physical memory cell.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
Deletion runs locally. The content of deleted files is not sent to our licensing service. An internet connection is needed for activation and periodic license validation, among other online features.
What happens if an operation is interrupted?
The app records progress in a journal. Operation recovery helps identify remaining items and complete the work. Results and warnings are included in the report.
When can I buy the app?
The planned launch date is 28 September 2026. It may change. After you confirm your signup, we will email you when the app is available.
