Verifying MD5 hashes in Batch?

Tags:

md5

I am writing a batch file and I need it to verify a file's MD5 hash before continuing on with the script. For example:

@echo off
if MD5 equ 79054025255fb1a26e4bc422aef54eb4 (
      echo MD5 identical!
) else (
      echo MD5 does not match.
)

Thanks!

The standard Windows utility CERTUTIL can be used to generate MD5 (and other) hashes.

For example:

certutil -hashfile yourFile MD5

However, the output (versions prior to Windows 10) will not be formatted as a single string of contiguous hex digits.

npocmaka used CERTUTIL in his batch utility to generate a single MD5 string.

In a similar manner, I also used CERTUTIL with my utility: HASHSUM.BAT - a batch file emulation of unix utilities like md5sum, shasum, etc.

HASHSUM.BAT does more than compute MD5 for a single file, but it is also convenient to use for what you want.

For example:

echo 79054025255fb1a26e4bc422aef54eb4  yourFileName | hashsum /c /ns
REM - There must be exactly two spaces between the MD5 hash and the filename

Will yield output like

----------  <stdin>  ----------
OK: yourFileName

or

----------  <stdin>  ----------
*FAILED: yourFileName

Or you can take total control of the output

echo 79054025255fb1a26e4bc422aef54eb4  yourFileName | hashsum /c /q && (
  echo MD5 identical!
) || (
  echo MD5 does not match.
)

Or, if you really wanted, you could capture the MD5 value and do the comparison yourself:

for /f %%N in ('hashsum /a md5 yourFileName') do set "MD5=%%N"
if %MD5% equ 79054025255fb1a26e4bc422aef54eb4 (
  echo MD5 identical!
) else (
  echo MD5 does not match.
)

I'm posting the code for the current version 1.4 of HASHSUM.BAT, but I don't promise to keep this code up-to-date. I recommend you get the code from the DOSTIPS site where I originally posted it. There you can also see a more thorough discussion of all the HASHSUM.BAT capabilities, as well as some more examples of usage.

try with MD5.BAT :

set "file=c:\myfile.ext"
call md5.bat "%file%" md5

if "%md5%" equ "79054025255fb1a26e4bc422aef54eb4" (
      echo MD5 identical!
) else (
      echo MD5 does not match.
