FileKiller

FileKiller is a software tool that provides its users with cleaning capabilities to securely wipe out various files of any size from their computers with ease.

A normal removing process using the “Shift + Delete” keys combination or by emptying the Recycle Bin is not enough to completely erase your desired items. With so many programs specially developed to retrieve deleted files from your computer, you cannot be certain that private information actually stays private.

The program is packed in a simple and intuitive interface, so there should be no accommodation issues to any type of users, even those less experienced with such software.

All you have to do is add the items you want to securely delete from the main window, pick the desired number of overwriting iterations (between 1 and 100), and then proceed with the elimination task. Worth noting is that batch processing is supported, which means that you can get rid of multiple files at the same time to speed up the task overall.

The tool enables you to use one of the three different overwriting methods: blank characters, random data, or user-defined ASCII characters. It also scrambles the file names to make the target more difficult to identify by the user looking for it.

What's more, FileKiller isn't wrapped in a setup package. Instead, it consists of a single executable file that can be copied to a USB flash drive or other removable device to easily launch it on a computer. It doesn't change the Windows registry settings but needs .NET Framework to run.

To sum it up, FileKiller supplies you with, a viable solution if you are looking for a fast and easy-to-use application to securely and permanently remove important documents or private files.
