Known issues

Removing a path (drive) in the preferences dialog may cause a crash. This is fixed in BleachBit 0.7.4 beta.

On Windows you may see Access Denied errors on certain types of files. This is fixed in BleachBit 0.7.4 beta.

Wiping memory and swap is currently experimental. It should always wipe 100% of the swap, but it may not wipe 100% of the physical memory. Before using this option, close all other running applications because they may be automatically killed by Linux.
