- Navigate to the directory where you extracted the files.
Using HashGen is straightforward. Here’s how you can generate hashes:
To generate a hash, use the following command:
hashgen [algorithm] [input]
-
Generate an MD5 hash:
hashgen md5 "your input string"
-
Generate a SHA-256 hash:
hashgen sha256 "your input string"
-
Generate a Bcrypt hash:
hashgen bcrypt "your password"
hashgen md5 "Hello, World!"
Output:
MD5: 65a8e27d8879283831b664bd8b7f0ad4
hashgen sha256 "Hello, World!"
Output:
SHA-256: a591a6d40bf420404a011733cfb7b190d62c65bf0bcda190e9b7e8a3c2e70c3
hashgen bcrypt "mysecretpassword"
Output:
Bcrypt: $2b$12$KIXKpW7WqH0dGJ3I0s9Q4e8rjZ3nY5C7nHk.9aP0Zz2fX0KzF5D4u
