When I select a check sum file the base folder for the files in the digest field gets set to the same folder. If I click on the button off to the side of the address box, it will allow me to select a different location but that different location never makes it back to the address box. I was able to work around this by typing in the address I wanted it to verify against and it worked great.

Is it still under development? I don't have any issues with it, but I was wondering when it was coming out of the beta phaze? Great program. Is it still under development?

I've tried about 14 free and 1 paid version. One thing I've noticed is that none use quite the same file format. WinMD5 uses two spaces between the hash and filename, Checksum Verifier uses a tab between them, and ExactFile uses a space asterisk. Is there not a standard format? I'm really excited about the TestFiles applet. I think this will be a big help to me. Thanks! I’ve been looking around for a MD5 checker. I’ve tried about 14 free and 1 paid version.

For kits, I'll have to uncheck the hidden files to have them checked for burning on CD, so... it'l be a big mess... around... Maybe a quicker new version to be able to hash the entire directory with any type of file attributes inside??? yes… and with hidden and system file attributes having set to files…. hashing…. in not working…

It'l be better to show progress indicator in MB for each hash, for example for a 4 GB file hashing, to show 125/4.028 MB, and next 3 seconds: 128MB/4.028MB, and .... 2. It'll be better for each hash to have an PAUSE button (like tape recorder)? For example, when doind 2 threat hashes in the same time, to be able to cancel the big hash (4 GB) and let the other stream to hash the other 25.000 small files? And when finishing hashing all the other 25.000 small files from hash 1, to start automatically hashing the paused threat (the big file hash)? So we can prioritize the way it hases? Better, or not?
