filecheckmd5 - readme.txt Driver File Contents (EloMSR.exe)

FileCheckMD5 is a simple tool to test the integrity of files in a
folder.

The first step is to create a checkfile. Click the Make Checkfile
tab.  The first button here allows you to select the folder that
will be scanned.  Once you have your folder selected, click GO.

The folder will be scanned recursively so that all files in
subfolders will also be able to be tested.

The scanning process calculates an MD5 sum for each file and will
save these values in a file (FCMD5-sums.MD5) in the folder you
selected.  How long this takes depends on how many files are
being scanned and the speed of your computer.

Once an MD5 checkfile is created, you should leave it where it is
saved.  You can then copy the FileCheckMD5.exe program file to
the same location so that someone can easily test the integrity
of the files.

For example, suppose you are about to burn a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM
and want to be able to determine if a disc is defective after it
has been burned or mass-produced. If your files and folders for
the CD-ROM are located in C:\temp\cds\new-cd\, you would select
this folder for making a checkfile with FileCheckMD5.
FileCheckMD5 will save the filecheck data file in
C:\temp\cds\new-cd\. If you like, you can copy the
FileCheckMD5.exe program file there too. Now burn your CD. Now
the CD should have the FileCheckMD5.exe and FCMD5-sums.MD5 in the
root folder. Running FileCheckMD5 and testing the FCMd5-sums.MD5
should allow someone to quickly determine of the CD-ROM is
defective.

Testing is easy.  Select the "Check files" tab and then click
"Open Checkfile..." and find the .MD5 file you want to test.  The
files' MD5 sums will be compared.  If the files have changed
(such as if there was data corruption), the test will show that
the MD5 sums do not match.

INSTALLATION:
FileCheckMD5 does not come with an installer.  Just put the
FileCheckMD5.exe file where you need it and run it from there.
