Operation of "Windows Erase program"-> Setting initial and fixed values using the command line

Setting initial and fixed values using the command line
Command line option details

In "Windows Erase Program", you can set the initial value and fix the value by using the command line at startup of "gppro4.exe".

Example:
gppro4.exe /M:3E /R:InfoDep. /T:E

Specify options by configuration file


By putting the "config.gp4" file in the same folder as gppro4.exe, you can specify the same contents as the command line.
"config.gp4" is a text file (ANSI) with the contents of the command line.

Example: contents of "config.gp4"

/M:3E /R:InfoDep. /T:E

Using with WindowsPE environment

When using gppro4.exe on WindowsPE, you can also perform automatic deletion operations, specify Secure Erase operations, specify network logs, etc. on the command line or configuration file (config.gp4).
The "WindowsPE configuration file" (config.gp4;contains command line options) used in this case can be created using the "Startup Environment Creation Tool'' (gpset4.exe) -"Create WindowsPE Configuration File''.
