I'm always finding files that are too big for a 3.5 disk, especially zip
files. And it never works when I try to span a zip file; guess they don't like being
zipped twice. If you install, and then zip the program on multiple disks, it probably
won't work later, cause the system files got away. Or sometimes just one file in a folder
is too big, and you wanted to save it. Here's your solution in one small file. This
program was great a while back when I reviewed it, but some people never stand still. So
they have come out with a new version, with new features. If you had the old version, or
you've run into the size problem before, this program is a must! [and ANYONE that
recognizes my name should know I DON'T review utilities]
Don't forget, if you have the old version of shredder, you MUST delete the old version
before installing 3.0 The new version will not overwrite, which is mentioned in a text
file in the program folder; however, I'm sharing this little tip with you cause I learned
it the hard way.
There are several new features, such as drag & drop instead of using a dialog box, new
status bar, support of large drives, [use it with FAT32] command line argument, [don't ask
me what that means, I usually review games-but there is something in tips about it], a
pop-up menu that makes it easier to e-mail the author, and the one I like the best-fill
entire disk option. Before you would chose how many pieces to break it into, so if the
file was just a little too big, you'd use half of 2 disks. Now you have a fill entire disk
option, which means that you can put something on the second disk, instead of having 2
small free spaces.
Program is very easy to use, chose your options, click ok, and it's done. When you're
ready to reassemble, just click on the bat file that shows up with your shredded pieces
and it puts it together for you. Best of all, with the bat file, you can send somebody a
shredded file and they don't need to have Shredder in order to put it together. How can
you not put Shredder on your computer?!?!
