I want to install v1.12 for Windows. I'd like to have shred-ability from the FileExplorer context menu. However, when searching this forum for 'Integrate Shred' I've observed reported problems with this feature over the past several years. Have these issues been resolved? And is this feature now considered "solid"? Thx, Rob

It does not work well with multiple files, so BleachBit 2.0 adds two improvements

1. You can drag any number of files from Windows file manager to the BleachBit application window, and BleachBit will shred them

2. The cleaning accuracy is significantly better

BleachBit 2.0 is in alpha, and right now there is a download link in the top right hand corner. It's labeled BleachBit 1.15. So far all testing is rather solid with only minor annoyances, I hope to have a new alpha or beta release soon.

Thx Andrew! I'll play it safe and wait for the BleachBit 2.0 stable release (hopefully soon!).
