Hasher calculates the hash/checksum for any file via drag-and-drop, ideal for large files. It includes a progress indicator and speed meter (megs per second). Includes a pause button and can change thread priority for background (low interference) or high-priority hashing. The program is capable of comparing the hashes of two files dropped to the form sequentially, as well as hashes of simple text strings. It supports SHA1, MD5, CRC32, and ELF.

Website and download links dead

The website is currently running.

I really like this app. Although it's quite a bit larger than Hash (http://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=1082, it has a cleaner interface, supports more formats, and also has the ability to compare the hash that's produced with the clipboard.

It is a pity that it doesn't have the option to create multiple hashes (ie MD5, SHA1, etc) at the same time. The way of getting a different variety of hash from the same file is a bit clunky as well, but it still works.

SHA1 hashes for large files (approx. > 1GB) seem to be wrong.
At least the result does not agree with sha1deep, Fsum, HashMyFiles (NirSoft) and Hash (Robin Keir).

@ sha1: problem solved with release 1.20

Now what we need is a way to generate hashes for all files
in directories

My new favorite hash program. Used this today to compare two different lists of similarly-named PDF files? The log file system and easy options were a breeze to use and compare a short list of files.

Though I still wish it had options for checking files in folders and subfolders, as well as automatic verification for example in checking the contents of CD for errors / scratches, this is clearly at the top in terms of hash checking here on the site.

Needs support for SHA-2 (SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512), it's becoming more common now days. The interface is quite good though

V1.20
