How to Verify a Downloaded ISO Linux and Windows 10

In this video I will be demonstrating how to verify your downloaded ISO in Linux and Windows 10. Checking the verification of an ISO is very important, it gives you peace of mind that any possible errors would be minimised during the installation process and if any errors were to arise, you know that the integrity of the ISO is not at fault and any further fault finding would most likely have to be explored within the installer or the distro itself. Hope you enjoy the video.
