"It works as advertised."

It is easy to use, intuitive, and does what it says.

It only calculates one hash type a time.
Summary
Is a very good program doing its job and it is free.

"This software works"
Version: HashCalc 2.02
Pros
Calculates wide enough variety of hash types MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, CRC32...
Cons
Does not calculate multiple hash types at the same time. Must repeat the operation (select files etc.) to produce a variety of hash types on one file. This is somewhat inconvenient and unnecessary. It would be better if you ticked boxes for every type of hash you want.

"Does the job well"
Version: HashCalc 2.02
Pros
Gives me the SHA1 codes that I need on files downloaded from Microsoft. Small program, minimal fuss.
Cons
No cons for this program.
Summary
Good program.
Only way I can think to improve it would be if the program would add the ability to right-click on a file (in Windows Explorer) and select HashCalc to automatically open and calculate the codes (using your last-used settings). -

Cons
Unable to rate, looked like it would be perfect.

"Simple and Good"
Version: HashCalc 2.02
Pros
I love it, easy to use, support many algorithms function
Cons
Interface is too 'standard', some icon would be nice
-
"Simple interface and does its job (NO SHELL INTEGRATION)"
Version: HashCalc 2.02
Cons
You can't do multiple files at a time and you can't output to a txt file, like some other hash-checkers. Like most others, it won't offer (right-click checking) shell integration for some user accounts and not others, it just doesn't do shell integration (fair enough). I just uninstalled another one that installed a shell extension without mentioning it nor offering the option to disable it in the preferences. This is better.
