You can also use WinMerge to compare files. I do that and it works fine. (winmerge.org).

Mazdajai,
How can I use sha1sum on Windows 7?

Hirst,
my files are binary files

I would suggest multi-level filtering compare:<br />
<br />
1. First compare the check sum<br />
2. If #1 matches check file size<br />
3. if #2 matches <br />
4. &nbsp;Then finger print match using any APIs listed.

If you can put the two files on a common file system (USB key or drive), WinMerge will compare binary files just fine.<br />
<br />
Then in addition to the above, you can also use DigestIT2004 (works in Windows 8.1) to create and compare MD5 hash totals. I use this tool for verifying very large downloads.

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
