Add commands to get a hash string of a file to context menu of Windows Explorer.
The hash string is copied to clipboard and displayed in a popup message.
Hash Algorithms: MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512, and RIPEMD160
This fork adds support for additional hash algorithms (SHA384, SHA512, and RIPEMD160). It also gets hash values in uppercase using the PowerShell Get-FileHash command instead of the original certutil, which returned values in lowercase.
Additional changes:
- Displays a popup message showing the copied hash value with algorithm confirmation
- Uses PowerShell icons in the context menu
Cascading Menu:
Open hashfile-contextmenu-add.reg file to add a "Get Checksum" menu with all hash algorithms as submenu options.
Individual Menu Entries:
Open individual files to add separate top-level menu entries:
hashfile-contextmenu-add-SHA1.reg- Adds "Get SHA1" menu entryhashfile-contextmenu-add-SHA256.reg- Adds "Get SHA256" menu entryhashfile-contextmenu-add-SHA384.reg- Adds "Get SHA384" menu entryhashfile-contextmenu-add-SHA512.reg- Adds "Get SHA512" menu entryhashfile-contextmenu-add-MD5.reg- Adds "Get MD5" menu entryhashfile-contextmenu-add-RIPEMD160.reg- Adds "Get RIPEMD160" menu entry
Restart the computer, or restart the Windows Explorer process from the Task Manager to apply changes.
Open hashfile-contextmenu-remove.reg file to remove all context menu entries.
