File Shredder is free, secure and fast application to permanently shred and delete files and folders on your computer. Shredded files can not be brought back by using specialized software, tricks or hacks - File Shredder destroyes them beyond recovery. File Shredder is released under the GNU General Public License and it is free for personal and commercial use.

With File Shredder you can remove files from your hard drive without fear they could be recovered. There are quite a few software tools today for retreival of deleted files under Windows OS. Those tools, ofter refferet to as "file recovery" software, are taking advantage of shortcoming of WIndows "delete" comand that we all use regularly to delete files. Actually, the "delete" operation in Windows only removes bits of information from files so they appear deleted in OS. It is easy to retreive those files using aforementioned specialized file recovery software.

In order to remove, or shred files permanently from your system you have to use a program that is capable of rewriting the files with random series of binary data multiple times. This process is often called shredding. That way, the actuall content of the file has been overwriten and the posibilities to recover such a shredded file are mostly theoretical.

File Shredder has been developed as fast, safe and reliable tool to shredd company files. The author of this program reliased it free unded GNU licence and you are welcome to download File Shredder and use it without any restrictions. File Shredder is simple but powerfull program that surpasses manu commercial file shredders out there. The Author believes that such a utility should be available to anyone for free and that permanent and safe removal of confidential documents is a matter of basic right to privacy.

In File Shredder you can choose between 5 different shredding algorithms, each one gradually stronger than the previous one. It also has integrated Disk Wiper which uses shredding algorithm to wipe unused disk space. More on options of File Shredder check Online Help page.
