Helpful indeed! I normally use HashCalc but needed another way without the GUI and this fits the bill very well.

Very helpful! Now I can easily verify that the Linux ISO's I download are the original ones :)

Before seeing the video, I only knew how to get the hash code via command. It's a very convenient to verity it right away.

That is neat way of checking SUM in windows
there is a similar way of checking sums in Linux with CLI too.
They are some Free GUI tools for windows and Linux that are good also.

verry helpful especially for people who have windows .

[kosterix]

you can do it a bit more efficiently in w11, by RMB path to file, so you don't have to pretend you are trying to emulate linux and paste that. It puts quotes automatically.

Cant get it to work because folders/files have parenthesis that keep screwing it up. Can't change file names without messing up links. Why cant someone make a simple app to check this?!

[paulGosling-gxkt]

Thanks for the video. Can you just cd into the file instead of typing the path?
