Developer’s Description

By 12Ghosts
Overwrite previously deleted files and wipe empty space.
Overwrite, truncate length to zero, rename, set file date to 1/1/80, and delete files and folders. Even if the file is locked!! No trails are left of any compromising or confidential information. Nobody will ever be able to recover these files. Nobody will even find out the previous name or file size. The file can be overwritten several times with random bits so that even the finest magnetic tracks are mixed up.
