Version 1.0.2 supports drag and drop and it calculates the SHA-1 hash as well.

Thank you for this.
Works well, love the simplicity, straight-forward design/usage.
I was using another Hash utility that integrated into the Properties Sheet but decided against it this time around because i just don't use it that often.

Great job author.

I'm still with HJ-Split v1.4 (for Windows 95!), but never had any problem with it in my XP Pro SP3...

Doesn't convert both hashes to upper or lower case, so if your MD5 hash is uppercase, it will say they don't match even though they do.

Hash is simple drag-and-drop file verification tool. The program displays file size, modified date MD5, SHA1, and CRC32 functions on any number of files. Results displayed in the window can easily be copied to the clipboard or saved to a text file. The program allows direct browsing of multiple files.

Includes command-line capabilities with support for wildcard selections.

I like this program best, since it allows multiple files at the same time, and supports a bunch of different formats, and is free.

Webfork on 2009-12-11 19:41

Outstanding program. Drag-and-drop support, multiple file checks, and containing the three major checking algorithms. Very useful to evaluate a file as genuine and uncorrupted.

Midas on 2018-06-19 07:57

Hash could be really convenient if it allowed to suppress GUI and redirect output to /stdout/.

sha calc on 2007-08-21 09:45

very simple utility, the only problem is it's limited to your system memory.
i tried performing a calculation on a file about 1.5GB but it gives me a not enough memory message.
i'm only on 1GB of RAM so i find this utility useless if i want to check the hash values on large files.
for example i regularly download torrent files 2GB - 4GB in size. which would require 4 GB of RAM!!!

Can anyone recommend a different app?

pgp/gpg? Menubinding is easy. can be done f.i, with www.autohotkey.com that glue my complete portable software system together.

This little "proggy" has been around for a long time. Where it excels is the process of adding an MD5 signature to a filename to help verify you still have a valid file. Such as after emailing it to someone else. Drag and Drop the file to dsmd5.exe "Yes" to copy to clipboard, then append something like [md5=].

gdmellott on 2013-12-14 07:13

For some reason the short-hand for Control-V after "md5=" did not show up.

eXpress CheckSum Calculator v1.0.0

Andrew Lee on 12 Feb 2013
  • 450KB (uncompressed)
  • Released on
  • Suggested by Andrew Lee

eXpress CheckSum Calculator is great for verifying the integrity of files downloaded from the Internet. Similar utilities install new shell menus and/or tabs, which I dislike, because experience have shown that badly written shell utilities will make Windows Explorer less stable. Why sacrifice system stability when you can use small, simple utilities like these instead?

Writes settings to: Windows registry, but application does not seem to use them! Given the nature of the application, I think it can be accepted as portable.
