is that a general comment. or emphasized for removables? Any particular aspect?

Just a gentle reminder - just to be careful that you don't wipe you C drive by mistake. Can't be too careful.

Can you wipe an active drive ?
Seemed to remember I kept getting the message the Active drive could not be formatted or perhaps I am getting confused between wiping and formatting a drive ?

When you say "clean", do you mean wipe completely or just get rid of rubbish? You can just clear out the rubbish by going to Options - Include, then Add and browse to the drive concerned.
