When deleting files or folders then by default the file or folder will be placed in the recycle bin. Of course this will make a file that was deleted can be restored to original place, but what if you want to delete confidential files or important files safely and permanently can not be recovered.
To do it you can use software that can replace or create a new file in the same location where the files you delete, so the files you deleted will be replaced by another file. You can use TweakNow SecureDelete to delete a file or folder permanently.

Nice post.
I think this is quite a good application to delete unwanted folders and files without taking any risk
You are right, especially if you want to delete files permanently
Interesting program, I may take a look. A few other good programs for this purpose (securely deleting files) are Eraser and DBAN. Actually, Eraser is similar in that you can securely erase files, folders, and even your hard drive. Meanwhile DBAN focuses on permanently erasing your hard drive (which is only useful if you are going to get rid of your computer or give it to a friend).
I am assuming that this program is fairly easy to use.
