IgorWare Hasher is in the database (https://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=1648) but doesn't have any dedicated forum topic, which this post intends to remedy.

Although licensed under a CC license and offering a very limited set of hash modes (namely SHA-1, MD5 and CRC32), IgorWare Hasher is noteworthy by extremely well implemented command line parameters, which make it a prime option for scripting and automation.
IgorWare Hasher is a free SHA-1, MD5 and CRC32 hash generator for Windows, both 64bit and 32bit versions are available.

Addition of at least SHA-256 and Blake2 would prevent IH growing obsolescence, IMHO.

[BLAKE2] design goal was to replace the widely used, but broken, MD5 and SHA-1 algorithms in applications requiring high performance in software. BLAKE2 was announced on December 21, 2012. A reference implementation is available under CC0, the OpenSSL License, and the Apache Public License 2.0.
