Hello, I have a 2006 Mac mini that I am going to sell, long story short I want to wipe all information off of it except for Microsoft office, I'm sorry if there is a similar thread or if this is easy to do, but I'm new to mac. Thanks
Your best bet is to reinstall the Mini from your system restoration discs after erasing the HD. If you're selling Office with it, reinstall it.Hello, I have a 2006 Mac mini that I am going to sell, long story short I want to wipe all information off of it except for Microsoft office, I'm sorry if there is a similar thread or if this is easy to do, but I'm new to mac.

There is not really a way to erase the drive and leave Office on there.
You could create a new user account then delete your account. That would wipe your personal files while leaving Office intact. But that could still leave behind some personal settings in non-user areas.
How about if, after creating the new user account, you encrypt your account, then delete it. And also secure-erase all free-space after doing any deletions desired from the disk.
