Any File Delete

Regardless of your experience with the computer, chances are that you stumbled across an error message stating that you cannot delete a certain file or folder because it is being used by another person or program.

While it is true that you can make sure to shut down all processes associated with it and try to erase it again, you could also consider using Any File Delete and achieve the same result just by typing in the name of the file along with its extension.

The utility comes with a command console similar interface, an option that can confuse and scare off users who do not possess advanced computer skills. Nevertheless, you should know that wiping files via this tool is moderately intuitive and entails following the directions provided. More accurately, you are required to type down the name of the file along with its extension and the app does the deletion automatically.

It would have been nice if the program featured an interface that enables you to add the files you want to delete with a simple drag and drop. Moreover, it would be useful if users would be provided with some insight regarding the method of deletion used.

It is important to note that the application cannot process more than one file per command. While the app can come in handy when you want to erase a work file that you updated on your personal computer, it may not be the best choice for the times when you want to expunge dozens of files.

On a side note, for the time being the application comes with a known bug, namely that you need to paste the file on the desktop in order to erase it.

In spite of its looks and the fact that it allows you to remove one file at a time, Any File Delete is an easy-to-use app that can help you erase documents or data files that contain sensitive information.
