Acronis Drive Cleaner left files and partition behind

Thread needs solution

I was so surprised to find out that after using Acronis 2021 disk cleaner to wipe disk clean, it left the partition intact as well as some files were recoverable using a third party disk / file recovery utility.

The method I used was " fast ".

Is that normal for the 2021 version ? cause I used to use the 2015 version and after wipe clean the disk, it becomes "not allocated.".

The disk involved was a SSD but it also happened on a HD.
