WinUtilities File Shredder Description

WinUtilities File Shredder is a tool designed to permanently delete your files so they can't be restored using recovery software. When you delete a file using the conventional Windows delete method, the file is not actually destroyed. Windows simply acknowledges the file is no longer needed and considers it free space. The deleted file will exist in a recoverable state until it's over-written with other data. When you use WinUtilities File Shredder to shred a file, the file is over-written with with random bytes before it's deleted. If the file was ever restored using recovery software, it would be worthless. WinUtilities File Shredder provides a new fully customizable System Shredder. Using the System Shredder, you can easily group browser cache, cookie, and history files to be located and shredded. Why do you need a File Shredder? Windows does not physically remove deleted files from your hard disk. Emptying your Recycle Bin does NOT protect you at all. Your sensitive files can be recovered, even after you format your hard disk! When you delete a file from Windows, the OS just marks the file as deleted in the file allocation table, but the data of the file is still on your hard disk. There are many tools available which can let others easily recover your sensitive files even after you format your hard disk. How does WinUtilities File Shredder protect your files? By overwriting the portion on the hard drive that was previously allocated to the files several times with junk data, WinUtilities File Shredder will completely erase files from your disk, without the possibility of recovery by any practical software or hardware methods. Main features: Single Pass DoD 5223-22M (3 Passes) NSA (7 Passes) Guttman (35 Passes) Wipe Methods
