FAQ
Questions people ask
Does shredding guarantee the file is unrecoverable?
Not always. On SSDs and modern file systems (for example APFS), secure deletion cannot be guaranteed due to wear leveling, copy-on-write, and snapshots. Shredding is still stronger than normal delete, but it’s not a forensic-proof promise.
Does it shred free disk space?
No. It only overwrites the selected files, then deletes them.
Will it follow symlinks?
No. Symlinks are skipped for safety.
Is anything sent to a server?
No. The app runs offline.
