CRCDropper 3.3
Published
After receiving some constructive user feedback, this update to CRCDropper should make it a bit easier to use. Instead of the drop-down list of files, it now has a list view to show the filename, file size, checksum and algorithm used to generate it. You can resize the window to fit more files on, and I've also added a "Stop" button so that you can pause or abort processing of the list of files.
I've also added SHA256, SHA384 and SHA512 to the drop-down list of methods available, since they are part of the Windows Crypto API that CRCDropper already uses for the MD2, MD4, MD5 and SHA1 algorithms. I don't know if they will much use to anyone, but it was easy enough to add support anyway.
One slight issue with these SHA-2 hashes is that the checksum box on the CRCDropper dialog was designed to fit a SHA1 hash length of 40 hex digits. SHA256 hashes have 64 digits, SHA384 96 digits and SHA512 hashes have 128 digits - not only do these digits not all fit in the checksum box, they might not all fit on your screen! Clicking on the checksum box still copies the whole of the hash to the clipboard, as it did in earlier versions.
The new version is available from the downloads page.
