Calculating Checksums
Use this dialog to calculate CRC32, MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512 checksums of files. You can save these checksums to a file for later verification of file integrity.
To calculate checksums:
- Select the files and directories (all files in selected directories are included) for which you want to calculate CRC32, MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, or SHA-512 checksums.
- Open the Calculate Checksums dialog box:
Menu: Plugins/Checksum/Calculate Checksums... - Note that this dialog is not modal (not blocking), so you can continue working in Sally while checksums are being calculated.
- When checksums are ready, you can see them in the CRC, MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512 columns.
NOTE: Not all columns may be visible (not all checksum types may be calculated), depending on the Configuration. - To copy a specific file's checksum to the clipboard, right-click the filename.
- Use the Save button to save the checksums to a file for later checksum verification. Select the desired format in the Save Checksum File dialog box that appears.
- Click the Close button to close the dialog box.
