Properties & permissions
Open the Properties card with Ctrl/Cmd+I, or from the Start command menu. It shows an item’s:
- name, type, and full path
- size and item counts
- created / modified dates
Copy path
Section titled “Copy path”A Copy path button (A, or the C key) copies the path shown in the dialog to the clipboard.
Checksum
Section titled “Checksum”For a single file, Properties shows a Checksum row so you can verify a download against a published hash. The row is labelled with the algorithm (for example Checksum (MD5)) and its value is computed automatically when the dialog opens — a Calculating… spinner shows until the hex digest appears.
Choose which algorithm to use — or turn the row off — in the Operations & Preferences manager under Checksum → Hash algorithm:
- None — no checksum row (and no Copy hash button)
- MD5 (the default), SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512
A Copy hash button (X, or the H key) copies the digest to the clipboard, next to Copy path.
Permissions (macOS/Linux)
Section titled “Permissions (macOS/Linux)”On macOS and Linux, the Properties card also shows the file’s permissions —
for example rwxr-xr-x (755) — with an Edit button (Y).
Editing opens a 3×3 read / write / execute matrix for owner / group /
others. A live chmod value updates as you toggle each box:
- Y applies the change
- B cancels
