MD5Summer

MD5Summer is a small, yet reliable utility that is capable of generating checksums for a large set of files. The software allows you to select the source folder then analyze all the files contained within, including those in the subfolders. The application does not limit the supported file formats, since it does not open them, only calculates their hash.

MD5Summer is simple to use and capable of generating checksums for a large series of files in a short time. You may automate the task, by adding a source folder as input to the software, then let it successively calculate the hash codes for all the files.

The software can apply the MD5 hash code generating algorithm, but it also allows you to switch to the SHA1 method before loading the source folder. To begin with, the software displays the contents of all the disks, as a tree structure and allows you to select a particular folder, by expanding any node.

Once you select a particular folder, you may view its contents and select one or several files, in order to proceed. Alternatively, you can select an entire folder and analyze the entirety of its contents, including the files in the subfolders. Once the source files are set, you may proceed to the hash generation.

Colored bullets indicate the success or failure for each file. You may preview the checksums and the corresponding files, before saving the results to a .MD5 file. Once you save this file to your computer, you may use it later in order to verify the hashes of the files. All you need to do is load the file and the software can easily identify the input location and items.

MD5Summer can help you acquire a list of checksums for a specific set of files. It may calculate the hashes using either the MD5 or the SHA1 algorithms, as well as verify the identity and integrity of certain files. The software supports generating hashes for all types of files, regardless of their format or size.
