Good mornang,

 

I have a folder structure that looks like this:

folder1
---files&folders
---folder1.md5
folder2
---files&folders
---folder2.md5
folder3
---files&folders
---folder3.md5

And so on, dozens of folders and TBs of data...

 

For integrity check I need to run these checksums regularly. Currently I'm using HashCheck for creating and verifying these checksums. However I can only do one at a time, and I was looking for other programs, but I couldn't find one where I could open multiple md5 files to queue them (of course I don't want all the verifying to run at once, but after each other). What program can do this? Command line tool would be good to, however with certutil I couldn't figure out how to verify with preexisting md5 file, it can only generate the hash.

Found it. Website looks sketchy, no info whatsoever about the creator, but Md5Checker is a free app and works on Windows10.

In options uncheck Auto start checking, then drag&drop the md5 files into the window. It will queue the files for checking.

 

I use Total Commander to get all the md5s at once: go to the root folder in which all the folders containing the md5 files are, and with cm_DirBranch it shows all files in current dir and all subdirs. Now I can filter on *.md5, select them all and drop it into Md5Checker.
