File Shredder

Simple and easy, but could do better

by: frollo17 on 19-Jun-2008 12:45:10 PM

Pros: You can delete certain files and folders and includes several overwrites to ensure no recovery of your files. Also enables drag and drop feature to locate and delete the files yourself. Right-click integrated function.

Cons: No right-click function or drag and drop feature for recycle bin. Could include choice delete within the program to delete the recycle bin or temp files.

Bwetter then most I've tried.

by: Charles K on 16-Feb-2008 09:53:23 AM

Pros: I like this program and am not overly concerned if some program or another has the ability to recover a file or folder I shred with it. I have no other users on my personal computer. What I need is the ability to take a file out of my sight. I had a ruff exe in program files that I couldn't get rid of after uninstall. Other shredders couldn't do the job either but this one did so it's fine by me.

Cons: if the real need arises I'll use FileASSASIN but so far I haven't had a nasty, infected file I couldn't kill. Thus, no cons so far. It's free and works good enough for my needs.

File Shredder

I love this program!

by: si on 04-Apr-2008 12:45:28 PM

Pros: Does what it is supposed to do with super easy UI.

Cons: Would like to see 1. an option to wipe an entire disk, [not just the empty space], and 2. an option in the recycle bin.

File Shredder

It's free, it works.

by: bagpuss2702 on 18-Dec-2007 10:32:09 AM

Pros: It's free and as far as I can tell it works. Files are non recoverable after shredding.

Cons: Could do with have a scheduler added so I can set it to wipe free space regularly.
