There are many ways to delete a file, whether you want it to be secure or not, fast or not. Since nowadays, we use computers to store data (including confidential ones), we want to totally delete a file with no traces for any file recovery solution.

The program supports Zero Data 1 Pass, British HMG IS5-Baseline 1 Pass, Russian GOST P50739-95 2 Passes, British HMG IS5-Enhanced 3 Passes, US DoD 5220.22-M / Canadian RCMP DSX 3 Passes, German VSITR 7 Passes, Bruce Schneier's 7 Passes, Canadian RCMP TSSIT OPS-II 7 Passes, and Peter Gutmann 35 Passes.

The program is written in C# .NET. The source code is also available for download and you may contribute to the development here.
