Crypto Hash Calculator

In order to verify the integrity of files, computers calculate hash codes which are unique to each file, or text string. There are multiple hash code algorithms to use, each with its own characteristics, strengths, and weaknesses. Specially developed for this purpose, Crypto Hash Calculator helps you determine the hash value for text and files using various algorithms.

Visual design and perks of portability

Note that the application is good to go from the moment download is done, saving you time and effort otherwise invested in a setup process. Moreover, this enables you to carry it along with other tools on a thumb drive. On the bright side, the health status of the target PC remains intact, because registry entries are not altered in the process.
The main windows is structured similar to a common wizard process, but without taking you through multiple steps, thus reducing effort, and time required for accommodation. All you need to calculate hash values is found in well-organized panels and sections, with an upper info field letting you know how it's done.

Result delivered at the press of a button

Input can come under two forms, which pretty much covers up all you need. On the one hand, there's a text field you can use to generate related hash code. On the other hand, a file can be loaded through the browse dialog for similar results, with no restrictions to format, thus providing a great deal of flexibility.
As far as hash algorithms are concerned, a pretty decent variety is at your disposal. The target type is selected from a dedicated section, with entries like MD2, MD4, MD5, SHA1, SSL3, MAC, HMAC, and ErrorTest. Output is generated at the press of a button, and you need to manually copy it from the host field. Sadly, you can only calculate using one algorithm at a time.

To sum it up

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that Crypto Hash Calculator combines practicality and flexibility in a lightweight application. It requires no installation to function, and even though you can calculate one hash type at a time, you can use it for text and files, with a decent variety of algorithms at your disposal.
