Hi, searching for a light and quick way to get the MD5 hash for a file (since you have to re-generate it at each change you make on it) I found this nice shell extension for Windows Explorer (and it has support for Mac too as a Finder plugin!).

After installed it's very quick to get the MD5 hash for a file/folder:

tip: on Windows, if you press Alt and double-click a file you'll directly to its Properties dialog.

It's freeware and so far was the best utility for this I could find:

(I guess some SDK tool will make that for us but until there I hope it'll be useful)
