Tool to permanently delete files

CCleaner for Windows
1

Hi, there used to be a tool to permanently delete files/folders. Has this been removed? If so, what is the best way to do as I would like to do multiple passes on certain files post scanning

Thanks and regards

You mean Secure File Deletion? Yep, still there.

To effectively use it enable Secure Deletion, it's located in Options > Settings.

Then if you have a bunch of files you wish to have securely deleted simply delete them as you normally would which will send them into the Recycle Bin. Then open CCleaner and click Run Cleaner, it will securely delete the contents of the Recycle Bin.
