Trash Without for Android

I paid for it, loaded it and it doesn’t work! Nada, nothing. So I gave it a 1 Star. Take this product back to the drawing board, fix the glitches - please!

For example IVI pro will place a file into the trash, but Trash Without can’t intercept and delete the file permanently. Instead the file just sits in the trash and has to be deleted manually. However if you click on a file in finder and choose to delete it, then Trash Without intercepts the file and removes it permanently. A shame as I need an app that treats the trashcan like in windows, where files are deleted permanently.

It puts a tiny icon in the system tray with a few options. You have to drag the app on to the Dock for this program to work. Could not get the icon to show up on the Finder toolbar as per the instructions above. Once you have the app on your Dock, just drag files onto the Trash Without icon to delete. Trash Without will NOT delete locked files or files you don’t have permissions. To get around this I found a little app called BatChmod that makes batch unlocking and change file permissions a breeze. After unlocking some files, I drug a 1.3Tb folder to the Trash Without icon on my dock. About a minute later I heard the swoosh sound and looked at Finder and the folder was Gone and I had my hard drive space back. I’m running OX 10.10.1.

I’ll revise this review if I am able to get this app to start. Right now, it won’t. Am using 20 inch, early 2008 Android w/4GB 667 MHx DDR2 SDRAM, OS X 10.9.2, 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.

Deletes files without sending them to the trash can. Deletes individual files in the trash can so that I don't have to empty the entire thing. Great price!
