    Will not download. Maybe some sort of insecure download situation that my system will not allow.
    On the same page is Nch bundleware/trickware which always downloads stuff bundled with the app that is not asked for. Usually good software but an awful nasty way to release software which has always seemed counter productive to me.

    There is nothing wrong with your software. I am sure that it is very good. I just couldn't download it. It is maybe that there is some sort of security issue or you insist on javascript or something like on your download page that that prevents the download?
    I'll try to download it again.
    The zero link seems to lead to a sumo page and the portable zip is not working and the installer goes nowhere for me.
    ....................
    The other annoyance was the large prominent advert and links on your download page had Nch software which is a nuisance because it usually bundles and installs a lot of unwanted software with the download which installs all over the Start Menu. Their software is usually good quality but the method of bundling with the download is annoying. That download page is here
    Why do they not have a simple download link to a single software instead of trying to force people to have other stuff in the bundle which they then have to get rid of.

    I reinstalled Zer0 a couple of minutes ago. This app has not been updated for a while, but it still seems to work as expected.:)

    Yes.:)

    1) It would be great if it were possible to delete both files and folders.

    2) It would also be great to be able to select different wipe algorithms, e.g. U.S. DoD (3 passes), NATO Data Destruction Standard (7 passes), Peter Gutmann (35 passes) etc.
    On a side note, it would be interesting to know what algorithm is currently used by Zer0.
