## Verifying your download
### Checksums
The HandBrake Team publishes [checksums for all downloads on handbrake.fr](https://handbrake.fr/checksums.php) and the [Checksums article on GitHub](https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake/wiki/Checksums). You may use the provided checksums to verify the integrity of the files you download.
<!-- .system-lin -->
When installing on Linux using the official PPA, download integrity is verified automatically. Similarly, the integrity of source code managed using `git` is verified automatically.
To verify an official source distribution tarball, consult your Linux distribution's documentation for instructions on how to verify checksums.
<!-- /.system-lin -->
<!-- .system-mac -->
On Mac, launch Terminal from your Applications > Utilities folder and use the `shasum` command. For example, if you downloaded HandBrake 1.0.0 to your Downloads folder:
shasum -a 1 ~/Downloads/HandBrake-1.0.0.dmg && shasum -a 256 ~/Downloads/HandBrake-1.0.0.dmg
Alternatively, the free third-party app [Hashsum](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hashsum/id1079442694?mt=12) available on the Mac App Store provides a convenient graphical interface for computing file checksums[^third-party-utilities-1].
<!-- /.system-mac -->
<!-- .system-win -->
On Windows, Microsoft provides the [Microsoft File Checksum Integrity Verifier](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=11533) command line utility for verifying checksums. Please see the [associated Microsoft help article](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/841290/availability-and-description-of-the-file-checksum-integrity-verifier-utility) for more information and usage instructions.
Alternatively, free third-party apps [Compute Hash](http://www.subisoft.net/ComputeHash.aspx), [ExactFile](http://www.exactfile.com), and [MultiHasher](http://www.abelhadigital.com/multihasher) for Windows provide convenient graphical interfaces for computing file checksums[^third-party-utilities-2].
<!-- /.system-win -->
*If the checksums for the file you downloaded do not match the ones published by the HandBrake Team, you should delete the file and try your download again.*
### OpenPGP
The HandBrake Team also publishes [OpenPGP signatures for all downloads on GitHub](https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake/releases). More information is available on the [OpenPGP article on GitHub](https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake/wiki/OpenPGP).
