What is Free File Shredder?

File Shredder is an advanced data security tool for Windows that allows you to completely remove unwanted files and sensitive data from your hard drive, replacing them multiple times with the US Dod 5220.22-M deletion method.

With File Shredder, you can safely delete files and documents from your hard drive without fearing that they could be recovered at some point. Currently, there are some software tools for recovering deleted files in the Windows operating system. These tools, often called "file recovery" software, are taking advantage of the windows "delete" command failures that we all use regularly to delete files. In fact, the "delete" operation in Windows removes only bits of information from the files so that they appear to have been deleted on the operating system. It is easy to recover these files using the above mentioned specialized file recovery software.

To permanently remove or destroy files from your system, you need to use a program capable of rewriting files with random series of binary data multiple times, and this process is usually called fragmentation. In this way, the actual contents of the file have been overwritten and the possibilities of retrieving a fragmented file are theoretically feasible.

File Shredder is designed as a fast, secure and reliable tool for destroying company documents. The author of this program has released it for free under GNU license and you can download File Shredder and use it without restrictions. File Shredder is a simple but powerful program that outperforms the common commercial file shredders out there. The author believes that this utility should be available to everyone at no cost, and this permanent and secure removal of confidential documents is a matter of basic privacy rights.
