- How to Check a Checksum for File Integrity of a File that you downloaded on Windows 10 using a SHA/MD5 hash. This video will show you how to use Windows 10 and PowerShell together to check a file hash against another hash and help you check the Integrity of your file. Make sure it's secure and not corrupt. Check various different hashes on Windows 10. It's a great tool to know how to use to make sure your files that you download is secure if a hash is available from the website that you downloaded it from.
Make sure that your file isn't corrupt and is secure by checking the integrity of the file using GetFile-Hash in PowerShell on Windows 10. Today we'll go over how to do that with the tool that is supplied by default with PowerShell.

Nik, this video is now 3 years old and still benefiting people. Thanks for more than just a demonstration that many similar videos offer, but for the clear and concise explanations to go with it! Now I understand the "what," the "how," and the "why." Fantastic video!
Subbed
Love to hear it! Glad the algorithm connected us
I would like to say, Thank you. You have taken something so complicated by others and made it very simple. I will look through your videos and see if you have videos for Linux and MacOS.
Glad I was able to simply if down. I have plenty of videos on Linux :) so have fun looking around!
Thanks SavvyNik. I'm not knowledgeable on using shells, so this was the one that finally explained this process allowing me to finally verify the integrity of my ISO files. Much appreciated, and well explained. Subscribed, in hopes of finding more resources in the future.
Thanks for the sub, glad you learned something!
Great video, thanks @SavvyNik !
You're welcome! Appreciate the kind remark.
Thank You So Much! You are my hero! I have liked, subscribed, and hit the notification bell.
Awesome to hear!! Glad you found the content helpful and thanks for subscribing.
You're a great teacher. Super explanation!
Thanks, that means a lot =) Glad you liked the video!
Such a clear explanation. Many thanks Nik :)
Glad it was helpful! You're welcome.
This method is much simpler than the one I was able to come up with. Nice!
That's great!
Wow the explanation was amazing Also for the newbies like me to check the actually file name go to properties and after details there is the full name
Tank you so much, worked well beside some serious PEBKAC.
👍
Finally a complete explanation a variety of examples - unlike so many of the other half-a$$ed vids o the topic. Had to subscribe.
Awesome, thank you!
Great help, thank you !
No problem
Thank You So Much my Hero ! On The Way Subscribed.
Awesome!!! Glad to have you following and subscribed :)
Thanks for this, have returned a few times, I was downloading a program called handbrake to make some gaming vids smaller, they can get pretty large, this helped out alot :D
Glad I could help!
Thanx for the video. It's really helpfull
Of course, no problem =)
Excellent video, Thanks
Glad you liked it. Thanks
Thank you. It's done! :)

Perfect thanks! 👍

love you brother.
Glad you liked the video!
That was explained in very simple language. Impressive. Thanks. [This is the first time in my whole life I have clicked on bell icon for any youtube channel] However I wish to know, what if I dont find source hash on portal from I downloaded the exe file?
Thanks. But if the site doesn’t supply the hash there’s really have no option to trust it.
thanks this helped alot
Glad you liked it!
E X C E L L E N T ! ! !
Thank you very much. :)
No problem, glad you found it helpful! Make sure to destroy that like button on the video for me if you haven't already.
SavvyNik
Destroyed already :)
@@michaelengher9895 Awesome ^^
Very good video
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Make sure to smash that like button for me if you haven't already =)
awesome!
Glad you think so!
By the way Make sure to add Quotation Marks on the file directory like this: Get-FileHash "C:\Folder Name\Disc.iso" -Algorithm SHA256
Because sometimes without it doesn't work without quotation marks.
Wonderfully explained! I really like how you can use this to verify your hash (around 6:07). I was trying things out and I saw that you could create hashes for each individual file in a folder by adding the folder path instead of just one file. Is it possible to verify the entire folder? Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed the explanation! Yes, there's a way for an entire folder but it's easier for individual files. I would suggest creating a compressed (zip) file of your directory and then the same rules should apply from individual files on your zipped file. Making it easy to get a hash.
I found that Get-FileHash produces an output of false even if I am comparing to the hash returned for the file of the same path. Any advice?
tnx
I am trying to do this procedure but having problems. I don't know where I could be making a mistake. Could you please give me a hand? I have two files that I need to verify this hash data as I strongly suspect the files (MP4 video) have been tampered with. I have what the hash should be from the audit logs. The files are roughly 1.4 gigs each and show the same event but in different fields of view/resolutions. I have the audit logs with what should be the hash values for both files.
thanks
You're welcome! Glad you liked it!
You have the best tutorial. What if my file is in a zip folder? I thought the Merlin forum said to be sure to checksum before unzipping?
Also, I got "false"..there's soo many downloads but only one checksum hash for each router model download.
The zip file should contain a check sum as well.
I tried to do it with ventoy zip file but I got error saying it doesn't exist the SHA256. I figure out that I forgot to put the .zip at the end.
woot 😋
woot woot!
What if i cant find my game file brcause its downloaded grom microsoft store
🙏🌹
Is it enough to just check SHA-1 to verify a file? Or do I need to check SHA-256 aswell?
It has to match the specific type of hash. They are all different from each other. Whatever you have available to check against should be the one you use on the file.
SavvyNik Thanks for the reply. I’m testing Windows Installation ISOs and can only find SHA-1 to test if it’s legit. The SHA-1 matches but was just wondering if that’s enough to judge the safety of the ISO
@@Anon76523 yes that should be more than enough imo. SHA1 is a 160bit encryption.. that mean if even one of the 160bits have changed you wouldn't have a match.
SavvyNik Cool, thank you! :)
@@Anon76523 You are welcome! Make sure to destroy that like button for me on the vid if you haven't already ^^
thats but what do you do if it is wrong you try install again or change distro ?
Try to download from another mirror or re-download.
@@SavvyNik I thin k where i live does not like sorce forge i've had a couple that have not worked from there.
@@bradleymaguire7179 That's too bad.. at least you're testing them and finding out that they're corrupt.
I tried giving the location path and all I got were text in red
How to check for the folders?
You can't check the integrity of a folder. It has to be some sort of a file like a compressed file that contains folders. For example, a zip file.
thanks
No Problem!!
