A 3rd party checksum tool and a bit of command line foo (ie FOR loop)?
Powershell can do this easily:
get-filehash accepts parameters like '-algorithm sha256' or '-algorithm sha512'.
If you want to process multiple files, try:
Just an illustration of what you can do, look up the relevant powershell functions for better insight.
Code:
Get-FileHash .\aes.ps1 | %{rename-item $_.path $_.hash -whatif}
What if: Performing the operation "Rename File" on target "Item: C:\Users\jgentile\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\aes.ps1 Destination: C:\Users\jgentile\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\47C6308F0747E3C0217C44BEB86E027124DE05CBFF32417A91BCDF7F98DF9302".get-filehash accepts parameters like '-algorithm sha256' or '-algorithm sha512'.
