Description

Now up to 300% faster!

Shredder allows to permanently destroy file contents and wipe previously used storage space, so that secret data can't be restored even by advanced recovery tools.

Deleting a file or directory does not remove the contents. Recovery tools can be used to restore the previous content. Shredder8 allows you to destroy the file contents prior to deleting files and directories.

Shredder8 also allows you to clean the existing free space of a storage device, where old file content may still exist.

You can choose out of a variety of standard cleaning algorithms, like U.S DoD 5220.22-M, British HMG IS5 (Enhanced), Russian GOST P50739-95, German VSITR or just do a quick shred, which should be enough for most SSD based storage devices and USB flash drives.

Nice App by Clayton
The poor reviews are really unreasonable. I'm an IT guy and this works great for a free utility. If you want more functionality, buck up and purchase it.

Very good doing as claimed by Jeffrey
Quick and straight forward to use without the over kill menus. Also liked having choice on which method of overwrite to use.

You aren't slow, just thorough. by Craig
You do it all! Shredding existing files and wiping free space too. Which is the only way to shred deleted files. It took me 29 hours to do my Lenovo CPU. That's mot unusual. It would be nice to have a scanner to verify data destruction. Nice job! Can't complain about the price. I would pay to have a scanner. Windows RT simply doesn't support any freeware.

Just crashes by Micah
After opening the app and selecting a file or folder, if it doesn't crash when I select the shredding method, it crashes when I select shred. Waste of space.
