Why bother with all that other nonsense of wasting your day wiping or whatever? Just smashed it to bits and you're done.

Thanks,, Best advice so far. It shall be done.

Try this....

Make sure your laptop is turned off, and remove all external devices (USB drives, printers, etc.) from your laptop.
Press the Power button.
Press the Alt key and F10 key at the same time when the Acer logo pops up on your screen. This will boot your laptop to a page of Choose an option.
Click Troubleshoot.
Click Reset this PC.
Click Remove everything.
Your laptop may restart and get your PC ready.
You’ll see two options available on your screen: Just remove my files or Fully clean the drive. Select Fully clean the drive.
Click Restart when you’re ready to do the reset.
Your laptop will restart. Wait for some time until you see a screen for you to choose your region and language. Then follow the on-screen instructions to finish it. all programs have been re-installed just like when you bought it new.

After this, the secret services will still be able to recover bits of porn. But most users won't.
