Free Wipe Wizard is a small software application whose purpose is to help you securely delete files so they are permanently shred from the system. The deleted items cannot be recovered using other specialized third-party tools.

The program works with NTFS, NTFS 4, NTFS 5, FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, and VFAT file systems. Plus, it supports hard disk drives (HDDs), digital cameras, floppy disks, Zip drives, Jaz drives, SmartMedia Cards, Sony Memory Sticks, CompactFlash cards, Secure Digital cards, xD Picture Cards, Flash cards, PC Cards, MultiMediaCards, and any USB disks.

The utility reveals a clean and straightforward layout that won’t take much of your time to decode it. A help manual is not included in the package. However, you can venture into tweaking the dedicated parameters on your own because they look easy to work with.

Free Wipe Wizard gives you access to an Explorer-like panel that offers you the freedom to browse throughout the files and folders stored in your computer. You cannot make use of batch actions so you need to select the files individually.

The selected file can be deleted with a single click. You are allowed to refresh the current directory with a single click.

Tests have pointed out that Free Wipe Wizard carries out a task quickly and without errors. It does not eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the computer is not affected.

To sum things up, Free Wipe Wizard provides a simple software solution for helping you permanently delete files from your system. It comes in handy especially when you plan to sell your computer or laptop and want to get rid of sensitive or private files. The tool can be tweaked by less experienced users and professionals alike.
