This is a secure file shredder for windows, using various different algorithms to securely delete your files permanently.
File shredding is overwriting a file with random data, then deleting it. We do this because when you delete a file it is not actually deleted, it just gets makred as deleted and stored in the "empty" drive space, it can still be recovered from this "empty" space and be read normally. Keep in mind, shredding a file will not prevent recovery, but when it is recovered it will be unreadable.
