Sending your files to the Recycle Bin doesn't delete them for good. For that matter, neither does emptying the Recycle Bin! Why? Because when you delete a file, technically all Windows does is delete any references to that file.

In actuality, Windows retains all the data until, at some point down the line, it needs to overwrite said data with new information. At that point, your file is finally deleted for good.

This process can be a very, very slow one, so how can you better protect your privacy?

Disk Doctor's File Shredder will immediately overwrite all of your deleted files, making it impossible for them to be recovered using any file recovery tools or computer forensics.

Shredding your files is an important step to take if you are concerned about your privacy, are looking to sell your computer, or are worried about the safety of your confidential information.

Disk Doctor's File Shredder provides peace of mind in an increasingly digital age.
