MD5 Generator

Compute the MD5 checksum of text or a file.

…or drop a file to hash it

—MD5 of the text

MD5 isn't secure. Collisions can be created on purpose, so use it only to detect accidental corruption or for legacy systems. Prefer SHA-256 for anything security-related.

How it works

MD5 (RFC 1321) produces a 128-bit hash, written as 32 hex characters. Web Crypto doesn't include MD5, so KadiTools uses its own implementation, tested against the official test vectors. Text is hashed as UTF-8, which is what most programming languages do. Files are read locally and never leave your device.

FAQ

Can an MD5 hash be decrypted?

No — hashing is one-way. “MD5 decrypters” only look the hash up in tables of common words, which is why MD5 must never be used for passwords.
