Algorithm auto-detect
Paste a hash and Probatio infers the algorithm from its length, trying all compatible ones.
Integrity
Verify
The Verify module answers a single question: is this the right file? You give it an expected hash — or a whole checksum file — and Probatio confirms whether integrity is preserved.
What it does
What the Verify module does
Single verify
One file against one hash: green/red verdict with the algorithm that matched.
Checksum files
Batch verification of SHA256SUMS and MD5SUMS, and creating them, live in the Checksum files module, which also reads the macOS and PowerShell formats.
Export
Verdict and per-algorithm/per-file detail exportable to JSON and PDF.
Reset
A button brings the module back to its initial state.
Step by step
How it works
- Paste the expected hash (or load a checksum file) and drop the file to verify.
- Probatio normalizes the input and infers the algorithm from the hex length.
- It computes the digests and declares a match if at least one algorithm agrees.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I verify a file's hash?
Paste the expected hash and drop the file: Probatio detects the algorithm from its length and confirms whether it matches.
Which checksum files are supported?
SHA256SUMS/MD5SUMS-style files (hash file lines, like sha256sum -c); paths are resolved relative to the checksum file's folder.Do I need to specify the algorithm?
No: auto-detect tries all algorithms compatible with the hash length and reports the one that matched.
