QuickHash is a graphical interface data hashing tool.
It enables the rapid selection and hashing of data such as text, a single file, multiple files in folders, comparing files, comparing folders of files, lists of text line-by-line, disks and logical partitions, file copying with hashing, a myriad of right-click menu options and all of this on all three major operating systems.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Supports the following hash algorithms:
- MD5.
- SHA1.
- SHA-3 (256 bit).
- SHA256.
- SHA512.
- xxHash.
- Blake2B (256 bit).
- Blake3.
- CRC32.
- Simple tabbed interface.
- Recursive hashing, or hashing and copying to reconstructed directory directory and re-hashing in destination directory.
- Ability to hash segments of text or dynamic hashing as you type into the text field
- Ability to hash files of text line-by-line – useful for those needing to hash lists of e-mail addresses for Google Adwords etc
- Ability to hash disks in Windows and Linux (using root or sudo), e.g. /dev/hda or /dev/hda1 or /dev/sde or /dev/sde1 (not avail in macOS).
- Simple recursive hashing of all files in a selected directory and its sub-directories with tabulated results as CSV or HTML.
- MD5/SHA1/SHA256/SHA512/xxHash/Blake2b/Blake3, CRC32 algorithms available.
- Forensic images in the Expert Witness Format (E01 Images) supported.
- Base64 decoding.
- Enables digital forensic practitioners or IT security staff to hash files at times when files have been extracted out from forensic software before or after transportation to non-forensic staff
- Usually faster than mainstream hashing Windows tools.
- Results can be exported to CSV text file, or a HTML web file, or copied to clipboard, or all of those.
- Drag and Drop available for individual files.
- Full PDF manual with screenshots and explanation of all features.
- Cross-platform support – runs under Linux, macOS, and Windows.
