This great debloating tool is not only great at fighting very effectively the really abnormal Win 11 bloat but it also sports a file shredder. Under "Tools" > "File Shredder" you can tick "Add File Shredder to Send To Menu" (top right) which allows you to shred any file or folder quickly from within the explorer context menu. If you untick that command, the file shredding option instantly disappears from the context menu. AFAIK HiBitUninstaller is the only tool with a shredder option that can be added to and removed from the explorer context menu as conveniently and without any problem as that.

Great tip, dot. Thanks.

I've been using Revo for a very long time and it does everything I want and need it to do. I have not seen any other Un-installer anywhere near as good as Revo. Thanks to the makers for some great software, I appreciate your hard work, and it’s portable :)

Although it is extra useful, be extra careful with it or you might screw your system -- check, check, check, & recheck whatever you do.

I stumbled upon this app. accidentally when trying to replace my system icon for .reg files. I used to use IconPhile, but it's process is hidden. Sometimes it's hard to undo.

With this.. im able to manually replace system icons. :)
And it's portable/stealth!
