Verify Ubuntu iso on Windows

On Windows you can use the CertUtil utility to verify an iso image.

First, you’ll need the checksum of the iso. Should be on the page where you downloaded the iso. More info about that here.

Next generate the hash by running the following in a command prompt. Replace the path and ISO name with the one you downloaded

certutil -hashfile Downloads\ubuntu-19.04-live-server-amd64.iso sha256

Example output

SHA256 hash of Downloads\ubuntu-19.04-live-server-amd64.iso:
25d483341ccd0d522a6660b00db933787c86c47b42f1845bcf997127f4b61e9d
CertUtil: -hashfile command completed successfully.

Compare the output with the checksum. If they are the same, you should be good to go.
