FreeShred [March-2022] FreeShred is a tool you can use to permanently remove files from your computer to prevent unauthorized PC users from recovering data with specialized software. FreeShred is a tool you can use to permanently remove files from your computer to prevent unauthorized PC users from recovering data with specialized software. It can erase folders, Recycle Bin contents and Internet privacy-related data, as well as secure free space where file and folders were already deleted by sending them to Recycle Bin or using the Shift+Delete key combination. Multiple security algorithms and randomization types are supported. Download and run The program's not wrapped in a setup pack, so you can save its files in a custom location on the disk and just double-click the.exe to launch it. No modifications are made to the Windows registry. However, the configuration files are changed on exit, and you must have.NET Framework installed. As far as the interface is concerned, FreeShred adopts a large window with a rudimentary look. Shred files, folders and Recycle Bin contents You can create a new task by specifying the type between shredding a file, folder or Recycle Bin contents, along with the file or folder target, algorithm, and randomization mode. Multiple tasks can be created and initialized at once in the pending queue. They can be removed from the list or re-arranged in any order, but it's not possible to edit their properties. Select the algorithm and randomization mode When it comes to the security algorithms, the application can overwrite data using 1 pass (British HMG Infosec Standard, FAST, NAVSO P-5239-26 RL, PseudoRandomData), 2 passes (German Federal Information Security), 3 passes (NAVSO P-5239-26 MFM, RCMP ITSG-06, US Air Force 5020, US DoD HD Disposition), 7 passes (Schneier's Algorithm, VSITR) or 35 passes (Gutmann). As for the randomization type, you can instruct the tool to randomize the seed once for each pass (fast), once for each write operation (intermittent), or on every byte (dynamic). Create algorithm profiles, wipe free space and Internet items Several plugins are included in the downloaded package and loaded by default into FreeShred. But you can access the plugins manager to disable any extra function. For example, you can set up new algorithm profiles to overwrite data with a random number of passes, custom byte data (up to three symbols FreeShred [Win/Mac] Do you sometimes store documents, pictures or important data in Dropbox? How about apps and audio files on Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive? Securely erase them all from your computer to prevent unauthorized PC users from recovering data with specialized software. We tested FreeShred version 4.4.26.0 (Build: 20191117.76) on Windows 10.3.19041. [clarification] This utility can erase files from Windows 7, 8.x and 10 and from all editions of Windows Vista, but it was not tested on other Windows OSes. The FreeShred FAQ lists other compatible Windows platforms, plus some other versions of Linux, macOS and other operating systems. [clarification] The program doesn't work on drives that are not part of the main operating system. For example, it won't erase files from external USB drives. So it can't erase files from removable drives connected to another computer, since the main computer itself is not aware of those removable drives. [clarification] FreeShred provides two forms of remote control: a static one and a dynamic one. The static one is activated by specifying the IP address, port and authentication method, while the dynamic one works by recognizing hosts on the network. The dynamic form lets you control the process from anywhere on the network, without having to stay logged into the remote PC. [clarification] FreeShred is intended to securely remove files from your computer, not to wipe free space on the disk. [clarification] Although the program can be installed in a custom location on the disk, we didn't write its files to the registry. Therefore, it doesn't make any changes to the Windows registry. [clarification] Since FreeShred is not wrapped in a setup pack, you can save its files in a custom location on the disk and just double-click the.exe to launch it. [clarification] We evaluated FreeShred on Windows 10 because it is the most popular operating system in use. [clarification] The program supports both 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems. [clarification] We included a brief description of the advanced interface because the basic one doesn't give detailed information about the tool's settings.
