What this tool does

File Hash Checker is a local file checksum tool, the file is read and hashed in the browser without uploading, so large files stay private.

Compare the result character by character with the published checksum. A single differing character means the file was altered or the download was incomplete.

How to use it

  1. Paste or type your content into the input field at the top, or press the sample button to load demo data.
  2. Adjust the options below the input, such as output format, separators, letter case or precision.
  3. Press the main button to run the conversion. Results appear instantly in the output panel without a page reload.
  4. When the result looks right, use the copy button in the corner, or download it as a local file.

Tips and notes

Clean up stray spaces and line breaks before pasting for more accurate results.
