If you want to check the integrity and authenticity of the data you have downloaded, follow these steps:
Download
Download the ISO file of the product you want and follow the installation instructions.
Hash
Go to the table at the end, select and copy the value of the language you just downloaded.
Open bash terminal
After successfully downloading the ISO file, open your bash terminal and type the following:
echo "HASH *FILE_NAME.iso" | shasum -a 256 --check
If everything went well, the terminal should return:
FILE_NAME.iso: OK
If the result was an OK, it will confirm that the file has not been damaged, modified or altered in any way compared to the original.
Example usage
echo "C8CXXX *Win11_22H2_Spanish_x64v2.iso" | shasum -a 256 --check
Win11_22H2_Spanish_x64v2.iso: OK
