"Hash with Probatio"

1. How it works

Probatio accepts a file passed at launch and opens it automatically in the Hash module. The mechanism is already built into the app:

• Windows: the path arrives as a command-line argument (probatio.exe "C:\path\file").
• macOS: the file arrives via the Opened event (Finder / "Open with" / Services).

Registering the context-menu entry is OS-specific and is an install-time step (it depends on the installed binary's path). In production the NSIS installer (Windows) or the signed bundle (macOS) writes it; here's how to do it by hand.

2. macOS — Quick Action (Finder)

Recommended: a Quick Action built with Automator.

1. Automator → new document → Quick Action.
2. "Workflow receives": files or folders in Finder.
3. Add Run Shell Script; "Pass input": as arguments:

   for f in "$@"; do
     open -a "Probatio" "$f"
   done

4. Save as "Hash with Probatio": it will appear in the Finder context menu (Quick Actions / Services submenu).

In production you can include an NSServices entry directly in the signed bundle's Info.plist.

3. Windows — Explorer menu entry

.reg file (adjust the path to probatio.exe):

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\*\shell\Probatio]
@="Hash with Probatio"
"Icon"="\"C:\\Program Files\\Probatio\\probatio.exe\",0"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\*\shell\Probatio\command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\Probatio\\probatio.exe\" \"%1\""

In production these values should be written by the NSIS installer (install hook) and removed on uninstall.
