How can I remove files without fear they could be recovered using QM?

QM files? Delete the file, and delete its backup files in Backup folder. While deleting, the file must not be open in QM, or it may save and make backup again.

At first it looks simple. Open the file and WriteFile it with zeros. But I don't know...

Find declarations somewhere. Best if in C++ language.

Found declarations in EraserDll.h. This is raw output of my C++ to QM converter. Not everything useful.
Replace ??? to the dll filename.
Open the dll in dependency walker. The functions are exported decorated. Will need to replace function names like Function to [_Function@12]Function.

Tip: if sdelete supports it, use file path enclosed in double quotes instead of dospath. Some computers are set to not generate DOS paths.
