As the title suggests I would like to know how to wipe an old laptop before selling it. Simply want to remove any sensitive or private information that exist so a buyer cannot act maliciously.

How do I go about doing so? Any videos/tutorials you recommend on this process?

For any specifics it is an HP laptop running Windows 10.

Please feel free to ask any other questions and I am greatly appreciative of any help.

    Fill it with some junk and delete it and fill it again then format it. Or run a multi pass eraser. Or just take the hard drive out and sell it without one.
