What are checksums?
A checksum is a unique string of letters and numbers that represents the contents of a file. Each time a file is edited, the checksum will change. By comparing the checksum of an original file to the file you have downloaded, you can tell whether the file has been tampered with.
How do I use checksums?
Open Powershell (Windows) or Terminal (macOS/Linux) and run the following command for your operating system:
Windows: Get-FileHash <filename>
MacOS: shasum -a 256 <filename>
Linux: sha256sum <filename>
Enter the path of the file you have downloaded and hit Enter. You will see the checksum for the file.
You can compare the checksum output to the relevant checksum in the list below.
