After generating hashes, you can copy just a particular hash or all hashes to clipboard. Benefit of copying hashes is that you can paste them to Windows Notepad, and can save it to PC.
In the similar way, you can generate hash value of another file. Now if you have to verify hashes of both files, enter hash value of first file in available box, and click on Verify button. If files are same, hashes will match. Otherwise, you could be sure that files are not identical.
