Free Secure File Eraser is a security tool for Microsoft Windows which allows you to permanently and completely remove sensitive files (and folders) from your hard drive by overwriting them several times with various file wiping methods, including Gutmann (35 passes), DoD-7pass (7 passes), DoD-3pass (3 passes). The ‘delete’ operation present in Microsoft Windows only removes bits of information from files, so they can be easily recovered by specialized file recovery software. Files removed with Free Secure File Eraser are permanently deleted and the possibilities to recover such wiped files are mostly theoretical.
