Portable eXpress CheckSum Calculator

Portable eXpress CheckSum Calculator is a small-sized application wrapped up in a user-friendly interface, which contains straightforward settings to help you quickly calculate CRC32, MD5 and SHA1 checksums.

Plain and simple interface

These unique file signatures are utilized for verifying and comparing files to make sure they're identical. For instance, you can find out if a file was fully downloaded from the Internet or incomplete.
There's only one app window you have to deal with, which shows a handful of options. Even unskilled users who have never tackled hash calculators can swiftly figure out how Portable eXpress CheckSum Calculator works.

Calculate CRC32, MD5 and SHA1 checksums

The entire task is easy: select the signature types you're interested in identifying (CRC32, MD5 or SHA1), as well as locate and open a file with the help of the classical file browser (regardless of format).
The signatures are immediately processed and shown in this window, made from a combination of letters and numbers. Any field with text can be individually selected to copy contents to the Clipboard by triggering the global Copy shortcut or by opening the right-click menu.

Where it falls short

There are no other noteworthy settings available. Unfortunately, it doesn't integrate an option for saving all hashes to file, nor does it support batch processing, so you can find out the checksums of only one file at a time. Moreover, it doesn't give you the possibility to compare hashes.

Portability advantages

The program files can be extracted to a custom directory on the disk or straight to a USB flash drive to be able to directly run it on any computer without setup. It doesn't need libraries or other components to run, create files on the disk without confirmation, or update the system registry with new entries.

Conclusion

Portable eXpress CheckSum Calculator proves to be a speedy checksum calculator. System resources usage was low in our tests.
