So I am trying to run the Samsung SSD Wiping software and Im able to get it to run fine, and it is recognizing my drive.

The issue im running into is on the very first screen of the software it tells me are you sure you wanna do this its irreversible and stuff Y / N?

I hit Y then hit enter but nothing ever happens. Ive hit every combination of keys and cant get anything to happen. Could this be because I am using a USB keyboard rather than an oldschool PS2 Connecting keyboard, or has anyone else dealt with this issue

Did you try deleting your data other ways? A Diskpart clean command will delete all partitions off the drive, and if you do a "clean all" it will fully wipe it to make data recovery pretty much impossible. Unless you are trying to hide CIA type stuff, a standard clean will be fine if you are selling the drive or something.
