Simple Hasher

Simple Hasher is a handy tool for anyone needing to check if files are the same as when they were downloaded. Software publishers often create file signatures, or checksums, to ensure that files haven’t been tampered with or corrupted. This is super important for keeping your data safe!

Why Use Simple Hasher?

If you’re looking for a way to generate these checksums, Simple Hasher has got your back! It lets you process multiple files at once and can even fit right into your context menu for easy access.

User-Friendly Interface

When you open up the app, you'll notice it has a simple layout that's easy to navigate. To get started, just click the Add button and find the files you want to check. You can load as many files as you need in one go, but it would be even cooler if you could just drag and drop them!

Selecting Hash Algorithms

Next up, choose which hash algorithms you’d like to use and hit Compute. The generated hashes will show up in the main panel where you can easily copy them or export them to TXT files.

Perfect for Quick Calculations

This application shines when it comes to users needing fast calculations of many file hashes. Thanks to its multithreading support, everything gets done really quickly!

Easier Access with Context Menu Integration

You can also add Simple Hasher to your Send To menu from the settings. This makes processing files even simpler—you’ll save time and effort!

A Small Drawback

However, one thing that’s missing is the ability to compare a checksum provided by a user with one generated by the app. Having this feature would really speed things up during verifications.

Overall Thoughts

In summary, Simple Hasher is definitely useful, especially for those who juggle lots of files and want an easy way to generate hashes. A direct comparison feature would be a nice addition though!
