Delete sensitive data from your .DOC files

Doc Scrubber is a tool for Windows PCs that helps keep your .DOC files clean of personal information.

Word documents often contain embedded data, such as keywords, comments, track revisions, editing time, access and modification dates, not all of which are things you'd want someone else to be able to access or see.

Doc Scrubber is a tool to remove this potentially sensitive data with a few clicks. There are two modes to help you gain more control over what data is shared when you send your .DOC files to other people. Analyze mode merely summarize the data in a file, so you know what it contains. Scrub mode disposes of any data you want removed.

By default, Doc Scrubber does not overwrite the data, but generates a new copy for your records. You can even scrub multiple documents at a time with Doc Scrubber. For example, you can choose all of the documents in one specific folder, which can be a total time saver if you're under a time crunch.

Unfortunately, Doc Scrubber is not compatible with .DOCX format files, but it should work on .DOC files created with the newer versions of Microsoft Word. Just be mindful of the format you save each document in.

Doc Scrubber is an easy to use and convenient way to scrub personal data out of your .DOC files before sharing with others.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
