When it comes to wiping out files and folders, you may build up a list with the items that you want to purge, make use of batch operations for processing multiple files at the same time, and choose the deletion algorithm. Additionally, you may enable the quick erasing mode for overwriting files with zero bytes. What’s more, you can pick the storage device and choose the desired deletion algorithm from several options, such as U.S DoD 5220.22-M, British HMG IS5, Russian GOST P50739-95, or others. This mode does not remove or modify the existing files but it only shreds deleted data. Shredder8 for Windows 8 gives you the possibility to clean the free space that may still contain old data which was previously deleted.

For those users who are not familiar with secure deletion operations, the program displays useful information in the main pane. It reveals two animated icons in the primary panel: the first one is used for wiping the free space from a device while the second enables you to shred files and folders permanently from your system. The tool implements an intuitive behavior, so even less experienced users can easily discover and tweak its features. Shredder8 for Windows 10/8.1 is a small software application designed specifically for Windows 8 users in order to help them delete sensitive data permanently from the computer.
