Standard delete files


Deleting files and folders is required when they become useless or need to free up space on the media on which they are recorded.

This action is performed in the "Select file" field.
The easiest way to delete is by selecting the appropriate file or folder and pressing the [Delete] key on the keyboard.
A window appears asking if you are sure you want to delete the file in question.
When the "Yes" button is selected, the file is deleted and "No" remains.

Deleting multiple files at once is done by selecting any files that should be removed.

Similarly, a folder is deleted. Deleting a folder will delete all the files and folders that are in the folder.


Permanently delete files


When you delete your OS Windows files, they are not actually completely deleted.
This is because it is possible for the user to try to recover them if they have erased the error.
Even if you use the [Shift+Del] combination, they can be restored.


File Protect System provides the ability to delete files, as is done by programs known as file shredders. Standard file deletion only deletes the link to the file that indicates where it is in the hard disk but is not removed from the operating system.
In the shredders, the data is permanently deleted by randomly overwriting information bits in previously occupied sectors of the hard disk that contained the files in question.

The application uses low-level, hybrid technology. The result of this type of deletion is to remove the specified files forever, without anyone being able to find them and use them as a compromising material.

The application allows both individual file removal and entire information folders containing multiple types of items such as text documents, spreadsheets, scanned images, etc.
