If I want to sell my laptop, what do I have to do, that all the data is erased and can't be made anymore…

HDD: All you need is a low-level format
SSD: If the SecureErase masters => Run. Otherwise keep SSD.

For both actions, remove the disks and delete them on another computer.

You could format the hard drive, reinstall Windows and then clean up the free memory with SDelete.
