File Shredder Windows 7 to Remove Traces of Data From HDD

It is often required to destroy files and folders having classified information after their legitimate use so as to protect them from getting into wrong hands. For this the most common practice is to delete such files and folders from the local disk drive or from the recycle bin. But the fact remains that even after the supposedly ‘permanent’ file deletion, the data resides in the system’s hard disk. And with the help of strong data recovery tools, deleted files and folders can be recovered and re-accessed. To ensure such a thing doesn’t happen users can use tools like File Shredder Windows 7.

Kernel File Shredder or File Shredder Windows 7 is a software used to destroy files and folders beyond the point of recovery. This software is apt for permanently deleting files and folders from the system’s hard disk so that not even the slightest trace if found. The File Shredder Windows 7 tool is integrated with high level algorithms like the US Army AR380-19 (3 passes), Peter Gutmann (35 Passes), DoD 5220 + Peter Gutmann, and German VSITR (7 Passes). These algorithms work by making several passes over the hard disk memory, where the data to be deleted is stored. These algorithms overwrite the data stored in the system’s memory with bit patterns that could be random, all 0s or all 1s or other bit combinations. Overwriting the hard disk with several passes makes the data irretrievable.
