Description (go to index)
Deletor helps you reduce the clutter in your disks and other storage media by deleting files and folders corresponding to your criteria. The application includes a shredding feature to destroy sensitive documents and make them virtually impossible to recover. Files can be filtered by name, name patterns including wildcards, attributes and time properties. The deletion settings are contained in a single window to help you review them at a glance. Deletor also supports filter packs to help you organize commonly used file deletion specifications and quickly recall them by name. Combine this with the command line interface to the program and you can easily automate the cleaning process with batch files, shortcuts, scripts, or a scheduler.
