    LOL, you guys are wasting your time, he searches on web for anything that supports his dream, I'll bet if Jesthon posts a screenshot of "9650.16384 from a Redmond friend", he will take it as solid evidence. :laie:

    How can we check sha-1 or md5 in already installed windows 8.1 pro RTM x64 or via cmd? Thanks

    You need to refresh your knowledge a little bit. ;)

    Hash (like MD5 or SHA-1) is an unique number to identify a particular file. So you can calculate hash of Windows 8.1 ISO; not of the installed OS!!

    Like Tito says, you can't. But you could hash check individual files (or loop through a list of files) via powershell if one was so inclined.

    Code:
    $someFilePath = "C:\Windows\explorer.exe"
    $md5 = new-object -TypeName System.Security.Cryptography.MD5CryptoServiceProvider
    $hash = [System.BitConverter]::ToString($md5.ComputeHash([System.IO.File]::Open("$someFilePath",[System.IO.Filemode]::Open, [System.IO.FileAccess]::Read))) -replace "-",""
    $hash
    
    # or SHA1
    
    $someFilePath = "C:\MSDN\en_windows_8_1_x86_dvd_2707392.iso"
    $SHA1 = new-object -TypeName System.Security.Cryptography.SHA1CryptoServiceProvider
    $hash = [System.BitConverter]::ToString($SHA1.ComputeHash([System.IO.File]::Open("$someFilePath",[System.IO.Filemode]::Open, [System.IO.FileAccess]::Read))) -replace "-",""
    $hash

    I checked Windows ISO setup.exe with an online hash checker
    sha-1:68b5c6ab9fa1412a3a44086c2cb1a57a37d3417f
    MD5:6fb889c8b21fd94750bde9a6b5b62ea1

    perhaps a mod thinks about a read only mode for some individuals :eek:
