Secure Delete

Secure Delete is a highly efficient system utility designed to ensure the thorough removal of files and folders from your computer. Developed by AlexTSoft, this free program, in its latest version 1.2, caters specifically to users who need a reliable method to securely delete sensitive data. It integrates seamlessly into the Windows Explorer context menu, offering a straightforward way to delete files without the need for a cumbersome user interface.

Designed as a Windows Explorer menu extension, Secure Delete adds a “Secure Delete” option directly to the right-click context menu of any file or folder on your system. This enables users to quickly and effectively delete files using the robust Bruce Schneier algorithm, ensuring that data is irretrievable.

The program supports several operating systems, including Windows XP, 7, 10, and 11. The file names that come with the Secure Delete package include kmsdel.exe, sd2000.exe, Secure Delete.exe, and SecureDelete.exe. Users looking for efficient file management tools in the "System Utilities" category, especially within the "File Managers" subcategory, will find Secure Delete a valuable addition to their toolkit.

Given its simplicity and effectiveness, the program does not have a traditional user interface; instead, it offers just a single menu item that does the job with minimal fuss. This approach may appeal to users who prefer not to navigate through multiple windows and settings just to delete a file securely. More
