Frequently asked questions

Is my file uploaded?

No. The checksum is calculated in your browser, the file never leaves your device.

Why are MD5 and SHA-1 only good as checksums?

Collisions are known for both: two different files can have the same value. They still help against transmission errors; for security, use SHA-256 or longer.

How do I verify a download?

Choose the file and paste the checksum from the download page into “Expected value”. The tool shows whether it matches and with which algorithm.
