You have created the Windows.iso file using the Media Creation tool and would like to verify the SHA256 hash. It seems to work, but your hash value does not match any published hash value. Why? How to get the “best” Windows.iso file?
So you happily open a powershell: BT Shift– or. ShiftThe key when pressed right on you DownloadsClick the folder. In the context menu, select Open the PowerShell window here. With Get-FileHash And file name (e.g. Get-FileHash. Windows.iso) Give the PowerShell an arithmetic problem, the result is a SHA256 hash of the file after a few seconds. It starts with a long string, for example starting 032134D02 with.
That would be hasha. According to a Google search, it does not match any of the hashes released for Windows image files.

If the hash is correct, it will guarantee that it is the correct file and that nothing has happened to it. You google the hash value: nothing! You would have expected at least one search success to confirm that your hash Windows installation disk belongs to the image. Why don’t you find anything there? Proper hashes must be posted somewhere!
Solution: Are you there too However, unfortunately, the hash of Windows.iso, created using a media generator, does not match one of the published hashes. You can see that the .iso file created in this way is less than 5GB, while the official .iso file is slightly more “heavy” than 6GB. When creating a file using the Media Creation tool, redundant data will be lost, which is why the file is so small that it does not fit into the full official .iso file.
But there is a strange way you can get an official .iso file whose hashes are actually published. We show this using the Firefox and Chrome example.

You can use the download method mentioned above to get the official .iso file and check the corresponding hash
They are: PCtipp.ch
After downloading, determine the SHA256 hash again with this PowerShell command:
Get-FileHash. Win10_20H2_v2_German_x64.iso
Now determine the hash of the new .iso file
They are: PCtipp.ch
Compare the value with the information on the Microsoft download page. This hash applies now (if nothing goes wrong).
