    Note:

    Hash values will appear in the SHA-1 and SHA-256 columns.

  5. For a single file, right-click the item and select Copy SHA-1 or Copy SHA-256. For multiple files, click Export All to generate a list of hash values
    Note:

    • To ensure that all necessary files are calculated for hash values, TXOne Networks suggests adding the root folder of the target application to the File Hash Generator for calculation.

    • By clicking the Add Folder button, only the installer files, script files, and files in the PE (Portable Executable) format will be calculated.

    • For the single hash value, see Add Trusted Hash Values for how to add the copied hash value to the trusted hash value list.

    • For multiple hash values, see Import Trusted Hash Values for how to import the file containing the hash values to the trusted hash value list.

  6. Click Exit to close the tool.
