Portable SX SHA1 Hash Calculator

Portable SX SHA1 Hash Calculator is a simple utility that can generate the SHA-1 checksum of a chosen file. It can also perform this operation for custom text.
This type of utility is suited for when you want to check the integrity of a file that you downloaded from the Internet, for instance. By comparing the generated checksum with the one of the original file, you will be able to tell if the file has been modified.
It is the to-go version of SX SHA1 Hash Calculator, sporting the exact feature set, with the upper advantage of portability. This means that you can carry it on a removable drive and launch it on any computer, without having to install it.
In terms of appearance, the program sports average looks; the main window, which is brightly colored, yet intuitive, sports just a few options that can be explored seamlessly.
There are two major options inside the GUI: one for generating the checksum of a file and the other one for custom text. All you need to do is select the file to be processed (or enter the text), then to press the ‘Generate’ button, at which point the hash will be displayed and copied automatically to the clipboard.
On the downside, the application does not encase an option to compare the checksums of two files, which is a quite common feature for this type of application.
On an ending note, Portable SX SHA1 Hash Calculator is intuitive and easy to use, but could be improved to contain a hash comparison option in order to ease user efforts.
