Check file hashes on Windows with FCIV. 05-08-2017, 11:35 PM

FCIV stands for File Checksum Integrity Verifier which is developed by Microsoft. This program is a command line utility. It's no longer supported but I still use this tool from time to time.

Before installing FCIV, I suggest that you make a folder for it beforehand because the program will not directly install to Program Files/Program Files (x86); so you will be given the ability to choose where you want to install it. I usually create a folder for it in my downloads that way I can move the files into that folder whenever I want to check the hash for my downloads.
After you have finished installing it to that folder you made, open the command prompt and change directory to that folder.
Once you have changed directory, enter in "fciv" and it will display the syntax, etc.
Move a file to that folder (for this case, the file will be called "example.exe").
Enter in:
This will output both MD5 and SHA-1 hashes.
If you want to pipe this into a text document, then enter in:
Enjoy.
