ExactFile Usage

ExactFile’s functions are divided into separate pages in the ExactFile application window.

  • Single File Checksums: get checksums with any or all hash methods for a single file.
  • Create Digest: create a checksum digest file for all of the files in a folder (optionally including subfolders).
  • Test Digest: test the files in a digest file (several formats supported) to see if they match checksums.
  • Create TestFile Applet: create a digest file and a “TestFiles” mini-application to distribute along with the files. This makes it easy for your clients and users to find out of their CD is damaged, etc.
  • Benchmark: see how fast the different hash methods run.

See Settings for basic program-wide options.

    sadly there’s no portable version, like the previous predessor..

    Is there something you need it to do that the Create TestFiles Applet function doesn’t handle?
