GtkHash is a desktop utility for computing message digests or checksums.
It’s designed to be an easy to use, graphical alternative to command-line tools such as md5sum.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Reads the selected file and displays the calculated result from many cryptographic hash functions, including:
- MD5.
- SHA1.
- SHA2 (SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512).
- SHA3.
- BLAKE2.
- Support for verifying checksum files from sfv, sha256sum, etc.
- Keyed hashing (HMAC).
- Parallel/multi-threaded hash calculation.
- Remote file access using GIO/GVfs.
- File manager integration.
- Small and fast.
- Cross-platform support – runs under Linux, macOS, and Windows.
