I recently deleted some files that contain sensitive personal data. Do I need to take and overt action to insure these files are unrecoverable?

Hello Joes1941,
Welcome to the Community!
Please have a look here at the USER GUIDE.
It deletes them securely but Windows is a leaky operating system it saves temporary files that you can't see or delete yourself - if you're going against the FBI you need to encrypt the entire drive. WSA will work ok unless someone is going to forensically investigate your drive, like the FBI or something.
Let us know if you ahve anymore questions!
Best Regards,
