    Hello, will there be Windows Explorer context menu support?

    Big request, you indicated the license of the GNU GPL, please write it in the form about the program, otherwise in some countries strict legislation will not allow this program to be used in organizations because of this in order to exclude copyright infringement, because all programs must be licensed.

    Thank you very much for the program! Special thanks for distributing it under such a license!

    Added a program to the site about free software in Russian, here is the link.

    Hello, thanks for the compliment of the software.

    Did not know that i have to write any informations about GNU GPL in the program itself,
    but i can do that.

    As about you question with the context menu support :
    Do you mean you 're missing an entry with "open with" in the explorer ?
    If you use the installer version, a file association for SFV/MD5 file is already done.

    What is the difference ?

    No, but I'll try to explain.

    Look, for example, 7zip allows you to select a group of files, right-click on this group and select the 7zip folder in the context menu and add the zip to archive item. This greatly simplifies the work, you do not need to open additional windows, specify parameters, immediately select what you need and create an archive based on the last specified parameters.

    And it would also be great to do it in Checksum Control. Select a group of files for which you want to calculate checksums (or check) and use the context menu to start the procedure for calculating checksums.

      Ok i know what you mean now.
      Currently i have no idear how do this in windows, i need to get more information about how do it.
      Doing a quickly check shows me that this is not easy in windows, since one must do something with the registry.
      I'll keep an eye on this and see how do handle it.
      Meanwhile i've added the gpl v2 license text to the about dialog, and re-uploaded the files.

    Thank! It is not urgent, but it is a very important feature for Windows users.

    Maybe this will help you, but here are a couple of free softwares that have this feature. Maybe it will be possible to see how they have done, and do about the same.

    1) https://sourceforge.net/projects/jacksum/

    2) https://sourceforge.net/projects/cyohash/

    3) I don't remember exactly, but if my memory serves me, there is also such a function here.
