If anyone is looking for a free opensource MD5 check utility, I have attached a Java app that I have written for checking MD5 of the downloaded file.
To run it, you need Windows OS, JDK/JRE installed.
Just unzip and read the Readme.txt file more information.
Any queries, please use this thread.
And here is a video i made for "how to check md5 on mac without apps" using Terminal

Hey,
I have made this very little portable app (21KB exe!) for checking md5 sums of your downloaded files (roms, etc).
It's handy for both users and devs.
It's stand-alone (portable) and doesn't require installation.
Things to do:
-associate Win Explorer right click menu for all files to have "Check Md5 sum", so checking md5 sum is going to be super easy!
It's attached.
Congrats!
Here is a MD5 checker for windows machines. It calculates the MD5 then displays a form with two buttons, you can either paste a MD5 into the text box and then check the calculated MD5 with the entered MD5 to see if they match.
Or after calculating the MD5 you can simply get the MD5 of the file you selected. Its very easy to use.
Find your file in windows explorer, right click on the file, and then select "Send To" and choose MD5 Checker and thats it
MD5 Of attached ZIP:

MD5 of installer exe file:

The MD5 of the attachments in this post.....if the person is downloading your app (unless they did as I have just done - I have an MD5 checker already) would suggest that they don't have an MD5 app already so the numbers you have posted seen pointless to the end user. They would have to install your app to check the integrity of the file they just downloaded.....and the purpose of providing the MD5 number is to check the download for either corruption and/or misformation caused by malware insertion etc.
Some constructive feedback. The installer looks nice and professional.
The app....how does it work? I have been using MD5 check and SHA1 and SHA2 checking for quite sometime now (so I know what I am talking about). I have mine setup through right click context menus.
Do you select the app in explorer with your app open and then go generate MD5??? No instructions?
Your uninstall method is messy and lefts junk/fragments etc in on the drive. The directory remain as well as the uninstall executable.

Uninstall isn't even mine. It's auto created by the packaging tool I'm using.
I kind of also have left this to the side as it doesn't seem popular.
And I don't know what you mean by saying posting the md5s of my tool is pointless. It's just a reference for people to familiarize themselves with md5 hash keys.
And all you do is select the file you want to check and right click it then select "send to" then "md5 checker" and it will generate the hash key then enable the interface.
Again I pretty much quit this. Nobody's interested.

one star for the sig whats up with that post in that forum? that angry person is crazy lol. Does he own the servers that run xda? i Mean is he the boss? Can't be. I dunno I gotta find out what thats about though its going drive me crazy if i don't pm me even pleasee lol
I know you said you pretty much quit this, but I just discovered it, and I am interested in getting it working as described in the OP.
I installed your program & set up the sendto, but the MD5 Checker.exe GUI front end for md5sum.exe isn't working. "Get MD5" doesn't do anything, and "Check MD5" always returns a mismatch.
Is this incompatible with Win7 x64, or have I screwed something up installing it?
Thanks.
Hi, I recently published my first android application on Google Play.
It's a tool to help you verify that the files on your device are not corrupted (incomplete download, ...).
It can be used to:
- verify a file tagged with a CRC32 checksum in the file name (My_Video_[89AF8C3D].avi).
- verify files with a .sfv file. The .sfv file contains a list a files and their CRC32 checksums.
- verify files with a .md5 file. This .md5 file can contains a list a files and their MD5 checksum or only the MD5 checksum (it will verify the file with the same name without the .md5 extension).
- verify files with a .sha1 file.
- verify a .tar.md5 file. It will find the md5 checksum at the end of the file to verify the tar part.

Please check out the app and let me know if you have any problems, questions, suggestions.
Thanks
A new version is available that can generate a sfv/md5/sha1 file from the selected files.
Thank you sir, exactly what i've been looking for ;]
What an excellent app, thanks a lot !

This was EXACTLY what I was looking for. It does what it supposed to do, check the SFV file on Android.
I dont know why this is not in Google Play, I had to download it from your site.
One side note, when I quick the app, it hangs, "Unfortunately, FilesChecker has stopped" error, with the lastest version from your site, v1.5.4.
EDIT
And I couldnt run it on my S5301 with android 4.0.4.
Probably because it has low resolution?
great app, thank you!
Is there any way to get the app to read from an SD Card?
Hello I have created a Checksum Comparer Application for Windows. The application is capable of installing a Windows Explorer Shell Extension that allows the user to right-click any file and compare both the SHA1 and MD5 checksums of a file. You can go further and click Compare and compare it against an original checksum (e.g. a downloaded file.)
Requirements:
Windows XP (Service Pack 3) or newer
.NET Framework 4.0
the .NET Framework 4.0 is available from Microsoft, just go to Microsoft's website and search ".NET Framework 4" and you should find it. (I am currently unable to post links.)
Directions:
Download ZIP file attached at the bottom of this post.
Extract it to a folder.
Run the Checksum Compareer.exe from the "x86 (32-bit)" folder if you're running 32-bit Windows, or from the "x64 (64-bit)" folder if you're running 64-bit Windows.
You can install the Windows Shell Extension by clicking "Tools" than "Install Explorer Extension"
When it asks to restart Windows Explorer, select Yes.
If you have installed it and would like to remove it, you can follow the same steps, but choose "Remove Explorer Extension."
Here are some screenshots of the extension once installed:
Images coming soon... (Under 10 posts currently... Sorry!)
Note to users:
Please report any problems or issues you experience. Please leave your feedback. If you remove this due to bugs or issues please let me know so I may improve it for future users.
Note to moderators:
I am not sure if this thread is appropriate for this kind of post. It isn't specifically for just android development, but its a good tool for developers and users in general. If there is a more appropriate thread for this kind of post please correct me. Thanks.
okk. Bro no worry I will add screenshots.
if you cant till tomorrow or so
I am searching for an aplication for android that can generate .md5 .sha1 and .sha256 checksum files. Not just the hash value but the actual file. And verify them again later. Just like in for example total commander for windows.
Do you mean some apps which work like the context menu item, 'CRC SHA', of File Explorer in Windows 10?

IMO you don't need an app to create MD5 checksum of a file and store it, you simply run in an Android terminal
Code:
md5 <FILE-NAME> > <MD5-CHECKSUM-FILE>
to achieve this.
Yes i know that but i am looking for an app where i simply chose one or multiple files and it generates .md5 checksum files for them an can verify them again by opening the .md5 file in the app and comparing the md5 value in it against the original file like many windows checksum apps or file managers can.
I guess such an app doesn't exist. Hence you have to create it at your own.
With regards to APK-files ( what simply are ZIP-files ) you may try
zipcmp · libzip
libzip.org
Thank you for the answer
