to make long story short. I was given a Hash code generated from a file, but was not told what kind of function it was generated with. The Hash code was: "IRV4RRFX3Q62YIXLBJMEXANLDE3JPVFT"
If i was right in could not be MD5 or sha1 because these are Hex based driven, so it must be something like base64.
Do someone know what kind of Hash gerenerator this was generated with? Or if it is not even a legal Hash?
thanks for the help in advance

It's impossible to know for sure from the information provided, but it may be base32 of a SHA1 hash.
Using this base32 converter gives me a hex string of 446BC8C4B7DC3DAC22EB0A584B81AB193697D4B3, which is the right length for a SHA1 hash.
