Data Successfully Wiped
The fake data wiped prank shows the exact DOS-style screen every PC user dreads: reformatting complete, all files removed, drive erased. Everything is fine. It's a browser page. Works on any desktop or laptop.

Wipe complete.
Press F11 for maximum realism. Tap or press Esc to exit.
Installed the crack fills the entire screen — no browser bar, no tabs, no giveaway.

For laughs only. Nothing here installs, downloads or damages anything — it's all harmless CSS/JS in the browser. It's a staple of April Fools' Day pranks and works any day of the year. Just keep it kind — see what makes a good prank.
