I also checked this file with SHA256 Checksum Utility, but the same result received.Īs you can see it's not the same SHA-256 hash, as you provided above. not download the file for other then VMware.Īgain and checked checksum with 7-Zip 9.30, here is a data:Ĭhecksum information for tools-windows-9.6.1.exe.tar by 7-Zip 9.30 on Windows 8.1 Pro X32ĬRC checksum for data and names: 44F2F1AE Note: When I said in my previously reply, ' and if it doesn't match then try downloading from elsewhere.' I was referring to you using a different computer or if you have a notebook go to a different physical location to use a different connection to the Internet to download. Note if you download the tools-windows-9.6.1.exe.tar file via a Browser using the hyperlink it will have the date/time stamp of when you downloaded it however I used wget to download the tools-windows-9.6.1.exe.tar file which maintains the date/time stamp of it on the Server.īottom line is the current tools-windows-9.6.1.exe.tar file if you download it right now it has an SHA256 checksum of 584fbb8a1c5ed9b74b8f91584067c77501616ac2aa222375fdd7826fd127dade and it it doesn't match then the download is corrupt.

exe.Īs to different versions of the *.tar, doubtful as it was just recently release! The extracted tools-windows-9.6.1.exe file has a corresponding date/time stamp to the tools-windows-9.6.1.exe.tar file and the date/time stamp of the tools-windows-9.6.1.exe.tar file matches what is in the file (T12:44:47.427000-07:00). Validating the *.tar is so it's known that the download was 100% successful and therefore should extract and have a valid. Message was edited by: WoodyZ - BTW The SHA1 and SHA256 checksums for the extracted tools-windows-9.6.1.exe file are e821c998af323c5789160488b1342400dd793a12 and 013d601a0ed06ae1f22e9c107596aa7dc79ca4001eeab59ff96f1f69527f5bdc respectively.Ĭhecksums for the *.tar and *.exe will always be different as they are different files. No because the file is not redistributable without permission and since it can be downloaded successfully by others you need to download and validate before extraction and if it doesn't match then try downloading from elsewhere.

Validate the tools-windows-9.6.1.exe.tar file before extracting so that you're assure the downloaded file is valid, then extract and execute.Ĭan you publish a file tools-windows-9.6.1? The checksums I provided are for the tools-windows-9.6.1.exe.tar file NOT the extracted tools-windows-9.6.1.exe file! As you can see, checksums are different from those, you've published earlier.
