Topic: md5 or sha1 for Electrum 3.0.1 (Read 349 times)
OK, thank you very much for your explanation!
What the output is showing you, is that the file is indeed signed by ThomasV's key:
However, because you have not explicitly stated that you trust that key (ie. it's not in your personal circle of trust) nor is it trusted by any of your "trusted" signatures... you end up with the "scary" warning:
If you are satisfied that the key you have for ThomasV is trustworthy... and that ThomasV is a trustworthy person (because if you trust ThomasV, depending the level, by default you'll trust HIS trusted keys), you can add ThomasV's key to your list of trusted keys... then when you check the signatures, you won't get the warning.
As mentioned, there are various levels of "trust", and it can be a very subjective thing. Refer: https://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/manual/x334.html for more info

Well I tried a few other commands incluing creation of my private key. Maybe this did it?
Anyway: The second command gives me:
Btw: I want to check the Standalone Executable and not the installer, but this shouldn't be the issue I think.
Ah OK: So I can Ignore the WARNING? ... Because it kind of reads serious :-)

That looks OK... seems that you already have the key loaded on your system? 
Did you download the .asc file? you might need to right click on it and select "save link as"... save it in the same folder as the .exe
Then just try running the 2nd command: gpg --verify electrum-3.0.1-setup.exe.asc electrum-3.0.1-setup.exe

Thank you both ... I want to try GnuPG but I believe I need some troubleshooting

i am assuming you have windows and here are the hashes for Windows Installer (https://download.electrum.org/3.0.1/electrum-3.0.1-setup.exe). use at your own risk.
MD5
SHA1
If it makes you feel any better... and it probably shouldn't, because MD5 and SHA1 don't really prove much... but I got the same hashes as Pooya87MD5

i would recommend that you check the PGP signatures instead, specially if you are about to store some funds in this wallet that you jut downloaded. it is not hard to do it under windows. https://ssd.eff.org/en/module/how-use-pgp-windows
and it is super easy in Linux.

Hello,
Can someone post a valid md5 or sha1 hash for Electrum 3.0.1.
I downloaded the file and want to check it before running.
I don't have PGP and a Google search showed that this will not be a quick check if you don't have the software and so on
