I was trying to delete some sensitive data files in my AppData, which is normally hidden. I've configured desktop windows explorer so I could browse into those subdirectories and I could delete them, but still the shredder cannot browse to that folder (appdata is not listed when selecting files or folders) so I cannot shred them from there. If I try to move the files to another spot that could be accessed then I risk further exposure or traces of the file I try to shred. This is not sufficient for security.

I'm trying to delete a folder with a TON of subfolders (thanks NPM) and this app crashes every time. Sorry.

After a few times of trying to get files in the Shredder 8 window, I placed the Shredder 8 folder on my desk top and simply dragged my files to the folder and just clicked SELECT ALL and away they went. It is easy, fast and final. A great app..

Bottom line: Delete items in recycle bin? NOPE no link for that. You have to individually select files. GARBAGE! Want to wipe the free space...okay...get ready to sit back for 3 days on a simple 3 wipe pass algorithm...in fact, it has NEVER made it through the wipe sequence even once. This app is USELESS! We so need a port of CCleaner or File Shredder to RT (amongst many other TRUE security apps). If it doesn't come soon I'm selling this RT as a paper weight. It's just an NSA wet dream of the perfect OS to monitor you with!

You do it all! Shredding existing files and wiping free space too. Which is the only way to shred deleted files. It took me 29 hours to do my Lenovo CPU. That's mot unusual. It would be nice to have a scanner to verify data destruction. Nice job! Can't complain about the price. I would pay to have a scanner. Windows RT simply doesn't support any freeware.

really effective way to completely delete file with deferent type of delete but the interface is really ugly and the delete process is to slow when it in pass 3 delete method and the interface is not touch friendly the icon are to small if you a windows 8 user the are a lot solution that will work with desktop mod but if you are windows rt user this app is for you
