[…] MD5 & SHA-1 Checksum Utility is simple but very effective in its function. All a user needs to do is browse for the file, or drag and drop them. MD5 and SHA1 hash values are then generated automatically in the corresponding fields. If you would like to verify the generated hash with a previous one, you can just paste it into the box and click Verify. […]

Great software to compute MD5 checksum !
there is an easier way: online checksum tools https://md5-checksum.com , what need is just your browser(chrome).

Hi Raymond,

Great program, I decided to go pro. Quick question that you’ve made already answered. How do I check the HASH/MD5 for an entire directory of files? I haven’t been able to figure that out.

Thanks!

  Hi Rick,
  
  In the Pro version, there is a Folder tab where you can generate the hash for the entire directory and subdirectories.
  
  Cheers

    Hi Raymond,
    
    Yes, I’ve been using that feature and then saving off the has as an Excel or HTML. How do I check the hash for the directory, if I’m moving the entire file directory to a removebale drive or network drive. How do I get each invidivual files Hash checked to ensure it was copied correctly?
    
    Thanks

      Hashing files is great, but I need to check that I have copied folders from one external drive to another. Just too many files to individually check.
      Can I either get a hash for a whole folder or is there a way to compare hashes from the .csv lists of individual file hashes.
      
      Thanks
      Rich

      Hi Richard,
      
      Yes, you can get a hash for a whole folder using MD5 & SHA Checksum Utility Pro version.
      
      For comparison, there are free tools which are able to do comparison and highlight the differences. Some examples are Diff Checker (Online), Notepad++ (For Windows OS) & FileMerge (For Mac OS).

        Thanks, I had a feeling that functionality was missing in this app. Maybe consider it for a future interation. It’s very cumbersome to have to create hashs for thousands of files (which can take many hours) twice (once on the source and then on copied drive), then run a dif on the 2 files. Thanks again for the response
