How to check file integrity of download if checksum value is not posted


I plan to download a large amount of files from this website.

There are no checksums posted on this website (that I know of). Is there a way I can generate a checksum from the file on the server (perhaps via some Command Line Interface) and then compare that to my downloaded file?

I'm using Windows 7 32-bit.


Solution

  • You can't, unless the server is yours and you have access to file system. But simply try to find the same file from another source and compare 2 downloads. Uncle google will help on this.
