Using HashMyFiles
HashMyFiles doesn't require any installation process or additional DLL files. In order to start using it, simply run the executable file (HashMyFiles.exe).After you run it, you can add files and folders that you want to view their MD5/SHA1 hashes. You can do it by using the 'Add File' and 'Add Folder' options under the File menu, or simply by draging the files and folder from Explorer into the main window of HashMyFiles.
After adding the desired files, you can copy the MD5/SHA1 hashes to the clipboard, or save the hashes list into text/html/xml file.
Explorer Context Menu
HashMyFiles can also be used directly from Windows Explorer. In order to enable this feature, go to the Options menu, and choose the 'Enable Explorer Context Menu' option. After you enable this feature, you can right-click on any file or folder on Windows Explorer, and choose the 'HashMyFiles' item from the menu.If you run the HashMyFiles option for a folder, it'll display the hashes for all files in the selected folder.
If you run the HashMyFiles option for a single file, it'll display only the hashes for that file.
Notice: Static menu items of Explorer do not support multiple file selection. If you want to get the hash of multiple files from Explorer window, use Copy & Explorer Paste, or drag the files into the HashMyFiles window.
Command-Line Options
/file <Filename | Folder | Wildcard> | Specifies the filename, folder, or wildcard that you want to hash. |
/files <Filename> <Filename> <Filename> ... | Specify multiple filenames, folders, or wildcards that you want to hash. |
/folder <Folder> | Specifies a folder and all its subfolders. |
/wildcard <Full Path Wildcard> <Subfolder Depth> | Specifies wildcard with full path (e.g: c:\folder\*.exe) and the depth of subfolders to scan. For <Subfolder Depth> parameter: 0 = no subfolders, 1 = one level of subfolders, 2 = two level of subfolders, and so on... 1000 = Infinite number of subfolders. |
/stext <Filename> | Save the hashes list into a regular text file. |
/stab <Filename> | Save the hashes list into a tab-delimited text file. |
/stabular <Filename> | Save the hashes list into a tabular text file. |

The <column> parameter can specify the column index (0 for the first column, 1 for the second column, and so on) or
the name of the column, like "Filename" and "Identical".
You can specify the '~' prefix character (e.g: "~Identical") if you want to sort in descending order.
You can put multiple /sort in the command-line if you want to sort by multiple columns.

HashMyFiles.exe /file "d:\temp\myfile.zip" /stab "d:\temp\myfile.txt"
HashMyFiles.exe /file "d:\my files"
HashMyFiles.exe /files "c:\temp\*.zip" "c:\temp\1234.exe" "c:\temp\Hello.exe" /shtml "c:\temp\1.html"
HashMyFiles.exe /folder "c:\temp" /shtml "c:\temp\1.html"
HashMyFiles.exe /folder "c:\temp" /shtml "c:\temp\1.html" /sort "Identical" /sort "Filename"
HashMyFiles.exe /folder "c:\temp" /shtml "c:\temp\1.html" /sort ~1
HashMyFiles.exe /wildcard "c:\temp\*.zip" 1 /shtml "c:\temp\1.html"
Translating HashMyFiles to other languages
In order to translate HashMyFiles to other language, follow the instructions below:- Run HashMyFiles with /savelangfile parameter:
HashMyFiles.exe /savelangfile
A file named HashMyFiles_lng.ini will be created in the folder of HashMyFiles utility. - Open the created language file in Notepad or in any other text editor.
- Translate all string entries to the desired language. Optionally, you can also add your name and/or a link to your Web site. (TranslatorName and TranslatorURL values) If you add this information, it'll be used in the 'About' window.
- After you finish the translation, Run HashMyFiles, and all translated
