You can find the status bar at the bottom of the main window.
This is the place where messages of the program are displayed on the left. Depending on the type of issue the message symbols vary, thus simple hints and critical warnings can be easily distinguished.
To the right of the message area you can see several icon buttons for the embedded database (start/stop), the energy saving functions, to release the clipboard, and to collect garbage. The memory controller right next to it serves to control the current memory usage of the program. When generating very many message digests e.g. for all system drives, memory usage can grow very rapidly so that the calculation can not be executed. Based on the memory controller display this can be easily detected and the memory size for the program can then be adjusted directly from the software. Please use the Setup -> Memory -> Memory Size menu to do this.
The software starts with a maximum memory size of 256 megabytes, although this size does not exactly correspond with the actual memory size of the program at the level of the operating system which is shown for example by the Windows Task Manager. In the preferences one can configure if and at which threshold value the memory controller is displayed automatically.
Far right in the status bar there is a digital clock arranged displaying the current date when passing with the mouse.
If you like the status bar not being displayed at all then you can configure this with the Setup -> View -> Status Bar menu item. Alternatively you can use the context menu (right mouse button) to show or hide the status bar (see figure). The memory controller and digital clock each have an own context menu (right mouse button) where you can control these components separately so that the status bar can be easily customized.
Some of the functions can also be called with shortcuts (Windows/Mac).
