Create CRC checksums (SFV format)...

 

With this function you can create checksum files to make sure that a file is copied intact, e.g. over a network or with a removable medium. You can create either a single SFV file for all selected files, or a separate SFV for each file.

 

On the target computer, you can check the CRC checksums with Verify CRC checksums (from SFV files), or some other SFV utility.

 

Save CRC files to: Here you can enter the target path and file name. The name must contain wildcards (*) when creating one SFV per selected file.

 

Create separate SFV files for each file:

Allows to create one SFV file per selected file. This is useful when you want to send the files to different recipients.

 

MD5 Creates MD5 checksums. These are more secure than CRC checksums because they are longer and use a more sophisticated algorithm. New: MD5 checksums are now stored with lowercase letters.
