Changelog

Version 2.0

Added

• New algorithms: SHA3-256, SHA3-384, SHA3-512, BLAKE3, CRC-32 and xxHash64 — joining MD5, SHA-1 and SHA-256/384/512 for eleven in total
• Keyed (HMAC) hashing — add a secret key on the Text, File and Verify pages, including BLAKE3 keyed mode
• Dedicated verify pages for text, files and folders, with a clear Match / No match result
• Automatic algorithm detection — paste a hash when verifying and HashGen highlights the algorithm that matches its length
• Bulk Hash — hash every line of a text file into a results file, streamed so even very large files are supported; output the source line plus its hash, or the hash only
• Folder hashing now runs in parallel across CPU cores, with a live per-file log and the option of a single standard checksum file (e.g. SHA256SUMS) or one side-car per file, written to the same or a chosen folder
• Algorithms are shown as selectable chips, with the legacy insecure ones (MD5, SHA-1) clearly flagged
• Seven dedicated tools, each on its own page: Text Hash, Text Verify, File Hash, File Verify, Folder Hash, Folder Verify and Bulk Hash
• File hashing shows file size, elapsed time and throughput, with a cancellable progress bar
• Hash input is tidied up automatically when verifying — case, extra spaces and a leading 0x prefix are all tolerated
• A redesigned, modern interface that follows your Windows light or dark theme, with a quick help tip on every page

Changed & Removed

• Drag-and-drop, live results and copy-to-clipboard refined throughout, with a tighter layout that fits comfortably on smaller screens
• Removed the old time-limited expiry, so the app no longer stops working after a fixed date

Version 1.0

Initial Release

• Text hashing — instantly hash any typed or pasted text using the selected algorithm
• Text verification — compare text against a known hash with a safe constant-time comparison
• Single file hashing with a real-time progress bar
• Single file verification — hash a file and compare against a pasted checksum, case-insensitive
• Batch folder hashing with optional subfolder recursion and sidecar hash file output
• Batch folder verification — re-scan a folder and verify every file against its sidecar hash file
• Five hash algorithms: MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512 — selectable per tab
• Color-coded results — verified files shown in green, failed in red
• Fully offline — all hashing runs locally on your machine
