WipeFile is a tiny app that deletes files and folders securely and fast on Windows, developed by Gaijin from Germany. It overwrites the information completely, so there is no way to restore the files or reconstruct the file content. It supports 14 different wipe methods, e.g. two US Navy standards, the standard of the US Department of Defense, US Air Force and the NATO.

WipeFile overwrites the data on the file with random characters or patterns to make it unrecoverable by any data recovery method. It can be used to permanently remove sensitive or confidential information, such as financial records, personal data, or trade secrets, from a computer or storage medium. It is commonly used by individuals and organizations to protect their data privacy and prevent data breaches.

WipeFile ensures that deleted files cannot be recovered or accessed by any means, providing users with peace of mind when it comes to protecting their sensitive information. With just a few simple steps, it overwrites the selected files multiple times with random patterns, making it impossible for any data recovery software to retrieve the original content. It is especially useful when disposing of old computers or when sharing devices with others, as it helps prevent personal or confidential data from falling into the wrong hands.

Users can even choose the number of overwrite passes for added security. Furthermore, WipeFile offers various deletion methods, such as Gutmann, DoD, and Schneier, all of which are recognized as industry standards for data wiping. This flexibility ensures that users can choose the method that best suits their needs and provides the desired level of file deletion.

Even better, WipeFile is regularly updated to keep up with the latest advancements in data recovery techniques, ensuring that it remains a reliable solution for securely deleting files. Overall, it is an excellent tool for anyone who values their privacy and wishes to securely and permanently delete files. Its friendly interface, multiple deletion methods, and commitment to user privacy make it a trustworthy choice in the realm of data wiping software.
