Common errors and fixes
File Hash Generator result looks incomplete
The preview can only use the rows, files, or fields provided in the current browser session.
Confirm that the full source was pasted or selected, then rerun the tool and review the output before downloading.
File Hash Generator output needs extra cleanup
