When saving hash, save only the file name and not the directories in one file

[Mewto7]

The software is awesome. When I save a hash for a folder that has subfolders, exporting the hash in one file keeps their directory. But if I later move a file, it is no longer detected. Is it possible to export the list with just names, like it does for single folder contents?

Thanks for everything.

You could fulfil your request in the wording yourself by deleting the folder levels from the checksum files with a text editor. It would be no problem to make RapidCRC-Unicode to save a file only with the file names - that's exactly the behaviour if you create a checksum of the same/single folder level. With the folder-level missing, a checksum program would not be able to find the files stored in subfolders again. But you surely want a checksum program to be able to read such a file again - and how should this work, according to your request?

• How should RapidCRC handle a checksum file that is missing the folder levels, because it would have exactly the same layout as a checksum file for the "current/single folder level"`?
• According to your request, I think RapidCRC should search for the files using a recursive search - if activated: How should RapidCRC handle it if multiple files are found?
• Even if only one file with the file name is found on the different folder levels: If the checksum is not correct, the question arises whether RapidCRC Unicodecode may have assigned a checksum incorrectly, because a new file got the same file name. This would irritate many users.

Would it help you to use "CRC into Filename" or "CRC into NTFS Stream". The CRC checksum would be preserved in both cases, when moving the files.

I also do not see the use case for this feature - if you have the files in the sfv without the paths then they will not be found if they are in a subdirectory.

My apologies for commenting this late. I am not a programmer, so how this would work is not something I am currently knowledgeable on.

I used your text editor solution.

Thank you!!
