HashTab is a Windows shell extension which adds a tab
called "File Hashes" to the
Windows Explorer file properties. The tab contains the MD5, SHA1 and CRC-32 file
hashes. These are common hashes that are used to verify the integrity and
authenticity of files. Many download sites list the MD5 hash along with the
download link. The HashTab makes it very simple for Windows users to check
these hashes on any file on the system without using external tools.
The screenshot to the right shows an example.
[8/24/2008] 2.1.1 hotfix released
This version contains the following changes since version 2.0.8:
Added drag and drop support for comparing files. Once the hash has completed, files can be dragged onto the HashTab. The dropped file will be hashed using the selected hash algorithm and the result is put in the text box and compared. This will make hash comparisons a little easier in some cases.
Updated translations for German, Japanese, Italian, French, Ukrainian, Spanish, Finnish and Chinese.
Fixed hash settings listbox layout
Added a "copy all" menu item to copy all hash data to clipboard
Fixed a problem where you had to hash a file in order to change settings
Added French translation
By popular demand, added support for MD2 and MD4 hashes.
The translation file has been updated for the new UI elements. If you notice untranslated strings in your language, you can help by downloading the translation file, translating the missing strings and sending me the file. Thanks!
To update, just download and install as usual. (This is the same file that you download at the top of the page.)
Please help translate HashTab! Translations for the
following languages are still needed: Arabic, Bulgarian, Finnish,
French, Hebrew, Portuguese and Thai. You can download the
HashTab Translation File
here. Once you have downloaded the file, unzip it. The file
is in Unicode format. Open it with Notepad and make your changes.
When you save it, make sure you save it as a Unicode file. Send the
translated file to
beta@beeblebrox.org.
The text to be translated is in
quotes. Some quoted strings don't need to be translated, it should be
obvious because you will wonder how to translate something like
"MS Shell Dlg" into your language. Some strings are placeholders for hash descriptions please find a suitable one-line description that works in your language. (Wikipedia ftw.) Let me know if you run into
any problems or questions. Thanks!
Special Thanks:
