Verify MD5SUM file on Windows

[peter_b]

Download a proper md5sums commandline tool:
http://etree.org/cgi-bin/counter.cgi/so ... 472f07827b
Save it in "C:\Program Files (x86)".
Then open a text editor (no, Word is not a text editor) and copy/paste the following code:

Code: Select all

@echo off
cls

@echo.
@echo Verifying checksums...
@echo.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\md5sum.exe" -c %1

@pause
cls

Save this as ".bat" File, and then you can drag-n-drop any MD5SUMS file onto it.
NOTE: This does not work for UNC-paths, because the Windows command prompt can't do UNC.

btw: Here's a link to a nice tool to create/validate hashcodes from within the Windows Explorer:
HashCheck Shell Extension

Yay!
