Inferno Portable Edition is a lightweight Windows freebie that can securely erase files from your computer.

Especially designed to help you remove data and prevent recovery apps from getting back the files, Inferno Portable Edition does its job with minimum user interaction.

The app comes with a plain and simple GUI that requires users to select the files to be deleted. Batch removal is supported too, so you can select as many files as you want.

Drag and drop support is available as well, but this didn’t work during our testing, and so are four different cleaning patterns, including DoD and Gutmann.

But the really helpful feature is that Inferno Portable Edition can remove much more than a simple list of user-defined files.

For example, the app can also permanently clean Internet and Windows history, cookies and large folders. Sadly, it only detects Internet Explorer files, so no Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome support for the time being.

The file removal process is fast and we didn’t experience any significant slowdown during our testing.

What’s more, since it’s portable, users can simply copy its executable file to a removable drive and delete files on the go, without the need for installation.

Inferno Portable Edition clearly makes for a decent product and with a few improvements in some key areas it could easily become a top choice. Shell integration for example could help a lot, as this allows users to remove files much faster.
