This small batch file, leverages the power of SDelete in order to shred files or folders dragged and dropped onto the Simple Shedder icon.
Simple Shredder is menu driven and offers a few options, at this time it allows the user to decide between the prest range between 2 to 8 or a custom number of passes that SDelete will use to shred your files into oblivion, likely for all time :).
Once you download and extract the SDelete binaries into the Simple Shredder directory, you're set to go. Simple Shredder automatically uses the correct SDelete binary bitness 32-bit/64-bit which is system dependant.
Just drag and drop Files or Folders and their contents onto the Simple Shredder icon to begin. Simple!
SDelete is developed by Mark Russinovich and is part of sysinternals suite.

This small batch file, generates complex passwords from a preset range length of 10 to 50 characters long or from a custom user defined length no more than 999 characters
Your password are saved to a text file with an optional reference to make it easy to remember the associated device/account/wifi etc. to the corresponding password The Simple-Password-Generator-List.txt is created if it doesn't exist and if it exists all passwords are appended to it. The Simple-Password-Generator-List.txt is stored to wherever path/location the batch file is, along with a reference/date/time tied to the password for you to at any time access.
If this path is a USB drive your passwords will be safe as long as you take simple precautions.
I recommend you use an external storage device like USB for this purpose
From version 2.02 Generated passwords are compliant with DD-WRT
