MD5 Checksum Tool v4.1.0.0

smaragdus on 25 Jul 2017
  • 8MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 13 Mar 2016
  • Suggested by I am Baas

MD5 Checksum Tool is a drag-and-drop hash checking tool that can generate a file checksum to analyze if a file has changed, usually to affirm it's legitimate and uncorrupted. The program can scan a folder and subfolders (recursively), as well as provide a report of all files, their size, and checksums. Supports very large files (4GB+) and includes a progress bar to estimate remaining time.

The program will allow the comparison of two files with their respective checksums and supports MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA384 and SHA512 checksums.

A 64-bit version is available (within the x64 folder).

There's no [portable] link anymore on the homepage (where other apps do) and I can verify that v2.8.0.0 writes it's setting to the registry.

dany on 2011-11-05 16:52

Disregard my previous comment, something screwed up my regShot. It only writes the EulaAccepted key to the registry. Not stealth and a little annoying but otherwise portable...

Couldn't get this to run reliably at all. Constant freezes; always had to kill it with Task Manager.

SendTo MD5 v1.6

webfork on 20 Jan 2016
  • 68KB (uncompressed)
  • Released on
  • Suggested by I am Baas

SendTo MD5 is a small utility to calculate and compare MD5 checksums of files or strings. You can easily check the integrity of files, compare different MD5 hashes or simply check if two files are identical. Additionally, you can search files with specific MD5 hash and benchmark the time it takes to calculate MD5 hash from specific file.

What's new?
  • Changed the threading code to use a single worker thread, instead of using separate threads for each file in the queue.
  • Changed the MD5 benchmark output to show more useful and readable info.
  • Removed 'MD5 Benchmark' from the main menu, as it's still not that useful. (Ctrl+B keyboard shortcut still works)
  • Trying to close the application while operation is running, will now cancel all operations in the queue, instead of closing the application.
  • Changed the default highlight colors to be more distinguishable from one another.
  • Fixed a deadlock issue when adding thousands of files to the hash operation queue.
  • Fixed a bug where in rare cases continuing search operation would actually cancel the operation.
  • Fixed a bug where hash search would skip a file if its filename starts with two dot (..) characters.
  • Fixed a bug where canceling a benchmark operation would display an error.
  • Numerous other minor tweaks and fixes.

This program doesn't simply check file integrity, it also lets you restore files that have been damaged using data redundancy. While very useful for archive purposes, users should realize this ADDS a percentage of data to the archive. A 1.5 gig archive took up 422 megs with default settings.

A similar, much more widely used and cross-platform technology is PAR2 (www.par2.net). There is so far no portable version.

Midas on 2013-11-14 11:33

@Webfork: www.par2.net is gone -- at least, where PAR (Parity Archive) info is concerned.

Anyone interested should look to http://parchive.sourceforge.net/ and http://www.quickpar.org.uk/ ...

If you use the Installer Version then this might be the case (haven't Tested) but if you use the EXE in the Portable Version folder it won't Install RealPlayer etc...

Emka on 2013-12-15 17:29

v2.0 out with Win8 support, still portable?

Emka on 2014-12-06 15:10

I am unsure if all would consider it portable, but this application is no longer stealth. The following folder/file are created each time the application is run:

c:\Documents and Settings\$UserName$\Application Data\Bitdreamers\Quick Checksum Verifier\config\global.xml

The last version I have (v1.1.5.13) does not do this.

I only tested the 32-bit version on Windows XP SP3 using Total Uninstall v2.35 (last freeware version of that tool)

lautrepay on 2011-10-29 04:27

@DavesNotHere: After the extraction of the installer, you have to create a file named "portable" or "portable.txt" in the app folder.

DavesNotHere on 2011-10-30 08:57

I created the zero-byte file "portable" in the app folder and voila! It is portable and stealth. Thanks! I don't know how I missed that step.

FileVerifier++ v0.6.3.5830

billon on 14 Jul 2016
  • 2MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 22 May 2010
  • Suggested by I am Baas

FileVerifier++ checks and compares files to see if they have been modified. Supports drag-and-drop, recursive directory processing, patterns, color coding, export to a variety of hashing formats (.sfv, .md5, .csv, etc.) and more. Can use any of 21 different hashing algorithms such as CRC16 for speed and SHA-512 for security (uses the standard MD5 by default).

The program (ZIP version) will automatically ask to create verification files with relative pathways, which is much more portable.

Win2K users should use an earlier version. A beta 64-bit version is available.

Category:
Runs on:Win2K / WinXP / Vista / Win7 / Win8 / Win10

Stealth: ? Yes
Unicode support: Yes
License: GPL v2
How to extract: Download the ZIP package (fv-X.X.XXXX.zip) and extract to a folder of your choice. Delete files fvshell.dll, winfvc.exe; fvc.exe, fvc-batch.cmd, fvc-batch.js. Launch fv.exe.

What's new? Applied:
  • A workaround for a condition causing a brief delay in the program exit on certain systems.
Fixed:
  • A situation where the program would crash upon recalculating or verifying a list where a significant number of files are skipped initially.
  • A situation where the program will crash upon writing lists with entries with dates prior to 1/1/1970. Any dates prior to this will be set to 1/1/1970. This restriction will be lifted in future versions.

A little intimidating at first, but so far looks like the best file verification tool I've tried yet. Fast, recursive directory verify, open source, relative pathways, and multiple different verification methods? Dream come true for making sure your data hasn't changed or corrupted. Recommend MD5 for general file verification and SHA 256 for security verifications.

FV++ Author on 2011-04-28 21:10

There is a version of FV++ that works with Windows 2000. The version is v0.6.4.6010 (it is under fileverifier-testing). While several of the icons do not render properly under Win2K, it is functional.

Also, there is no functional difference between the installed version and the ZIP version, at least in terms of the program itself. The executables are identical. What makes a FV++ installation portable is the presence of the fv.cfg file in the installation directory. There are no differences besides this and the lack of an installer.

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.

cannot find it on the hp anymore, dl link invalid

Note that the installer in the first link above (kioskea.net) is the Spanish version, but the second one (softpedia.com) is in English.
