HashOnClick for Windows

User Reviews

• Quick and simple

  Pros

  Just the job for getting MD5's for the setup files I upload to our website. It works on several highlighted files, and then simply create an MD5.txt file with all the codes in it.

  Cons

  Nothing. It's fine as it is.

• Very helpful and easy to use

  Pros

  Easy to use as it's intergrated in explorer. Gives a check that downloads have worked.

  Cons

  If you have a need to get the hash of many files and store those values somewhere then HashOnClick would be a little time consuming.

  Pros

  It integrates with explorer, so it's easy to use.

  Cons

  Once you calculate the hash, you can't use the explorer window from which you launched it (even the desktop, if you launched it from there) until you close the display window. Oh and it would be nice if you could change the font. :)

• Absolutely perfect for checking downloaded files.

  Pros

  The ease of use can't be beat. Use this to provide hash values for files you upload to your website or network. Check the hash value of files you download and compare it with the provided hash to make sure the file copied correctly.

  Cons

  I'd like the program to create a text file with hash values for every file in a chosen folder. For doing multiple files, you must do one at a time and then copy and paste the values into a text file manually.

  Pros

  How to use it, this thing is easy as pie. All you do is right click a file and click which hash you want, you can even copy the hash to the clipboard right from the window it displays the hash in! This is my favorite feature, because what I do is when I organize files to my server folders, I paste the original and the server file's hash into Notepad. In this way, I am assured I am distributing the author's original work, and that is a nice feeling.

  Cons

  I would love if it went one step further and created an entry in the Columns area, that way I could see the SHA-1 hash of files without right clicking them. This may be a resource issue, but I don't think it would be much of one, because the column could always be turned off when not used.
