Hello Harrison. Yes, you are right with your understanding. AVG File Shredder provides you with an easy way to permanently and securely delete a file, folder or the Recycle Bin contents on your computer. Files deleted using AVG File Shredder cannot be recovered even with the use of advanced disk utilities.

So, once the file is shredded and overwritten, is it then deleted and moved into unused disk space?
 

Just like when you delete a file from the recycle bin.
