Alternate File Shredder is a free and open-source utility for Windows that allows for secure and permanent deletion of files and folders, ensuring that they cannot be recovered by any means. It is the ideal solution for users looking to protect sensitive data, such as financial documents or personal information, especially before selling or disposing of a computer or storage device.

Main Features:

Permanent Deletion: Overwrites files with random data or null values multiple times, making recovery impossible, even with specialized tools.
Free Space Cleaning: Allows overwriting free space on the disk, eliminating remnants of previously deleted files, ideal for ensuring privacy on hard drives.
Customization: Offers options to set the number of overwrite passes, adjust the block size of data, and choose deletion methods (such as overwriting with random or specific values).
File and Folder Support: Easily add files or folders via drag-and-drop or through the interface, with the option to view properties or remove items from the list before deletion.
Compatibility: Works on Windows 11, 10, 8, and 7, supporting both 32 and 64 bit systems, with no need for dedicated installation for 64 bit.
Advanced Security: Includes settings to ignore write protections (optional) and disable deletion confirmations, speeding up the process for experienced users.
