How to Verify File Integrity Using Checksums:
Windows:
Powershell and Command Prompt methods are provided below. You can use either method.
Powershell:
- Download the required file associated with tax release 8.37.03.
For example:TaxUpdate-8.37.03.177-win.exesaved toC:\downloads - Open Powershell and navigate to the directory where the file is located.
cd C:\downloads - Use a SHA-256 checksum tool to compute the checksum of the downloaded file.
Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 TaxUpdate-8.37.03.177-win.exe - Compare the computed checksum with the corresponding checksum in the table above.
- If the checksums match, the file is authentic and has not been altered. If they do not match, do not use the file and re-download it.
Command Prompt:
- Download the required file associated with tax release 8.37.03.
For example:TaxUpdate-8.37.03.177-win.exesaved toC:\downloads - Open Command Prompt and navigate to the directory where the file is located.
cd C:\downloads - Use a SHA-256 checksum tool to compute the checksum of the downloaded file.
CertUtil -hashfile TaxUpdate-8.37.03.177-win.exe SHA256 - Compare the computed checksum with the corresponding checksum in the table above.
- If the checksums match, the file is authentic and has not been altered. If they do not match, do not use the file and re-download it.
Linux:
- Download the required file associated with tax release 8.37.03.
For example:TaxUpdate-8.37.03.177-unix.shsaved to/home/user/downloads - Open a terminal and navigate to the directory where the file is located.
cd /home/user/downloads - Use a SHA-256 checksum tool to compute the checksum of the downloaded file.
sha256sum TaxUpdate-8.37.03.177-unix.sh - Compare the computed checksum with the corresponding checksum in the table above.
- If the checksums match, the file is authentic and has not been altered. If they do not match, do not use the file and re-download it.
