  1. Download the ISO file and follow the installation guidelines.
  2. Launch Windows PowerShell. If you need help finding the location of PowerShell for your operating system, you can get help here.
  3. In PowerShell, compute the hash value for the ISO file you downloaded by using Get-FileHash. For example: Get-FileHash C:\Users\user1\Downloads\Contoso8_1_ENT.iso?
