Generate and verify a MD5, SHA-1 & SHA-256 hash from a file
Written by Elena Opris on April 10th, 2013


MD5 & SHA-1 Checksum Utility is a tool that allows you to verify the integrity of a file by finding out its MD5 and SHA-1 signatures, as the name implies. Its features can be seamlessly handled by inexperienced users.

This is a portable application, so installing MD5 & SHA-1 Checksum Utility is not necessary. It means that you can store the app on a USB flash drive or similar storage unit, in order to run it on any computer.

Otherwise, you can simply drop the executable file anywhere on the hard drive and run it. What's worth mentioning is that no leftover items can be found in the Windows Registry or on the hard drive after deleting the tool. Also, you can carry MD5 & SHA-1 Checksum Utility in your pocket wherever you go.

The interface of the program is quite simple to figure out, as all the options are visible in the main window. So, you can open a file by using either the file browser or "drag and drop" method; the MD5 and SHA-1 checksums are automatically displayed and you can copy either of them or all text to the Clipboard. In addition, you can insert another hash, in order to compare it to the file's.

The lightweight program is not a concern to the computer's overall performance, as it requires a very small amount of CPU and system memory. It has a good response time and instantly calculates MD5 and SHA-1 checksums. We have not encountered any issues during our testing; the tool did not freeze, crash or pop up error dialogs. Thanks to its intuitive layout and overall simplicity, novices can seamlessly work with MD5 & SHA-1 Checksum Utility.
