For SHA1FileFingerprint(Filename$), Filename$ is the full path to the file, right?

well, thats the problem sort of, it gets a different result with and without the path. So if this is supposed to be a file fingerprint, if the location of the file changes the fingerprint changes too.
Edit: nevermind, I got it straight now. I was looking at two different compiles of the same .exe named the same. I thought I had replaced one but had neglected to do so. My fault. DoH!

I had forgotten this... or more accurately i didn't knwo we had it...
gives me an output of:
FPRINT = 7a90f8b051bc82cc9cadbcc9ba345ced02891a6c
in my windws XP Pro....
Is it the same in other XP Pro??? if not that may be an easy way to check if your programs are installed on a new computer... because you could overwrite that info in your file if it was appended in a location you could access and you could check every time!!!
Could you not???
Code: Select all
GOOBER$ = SHA1FileFingerprint("c:\windows\notepad.exe")
Debug "FPRINT = "+GOOBER$
FPRINT = 7a90f8b051bc82cc9cadbcc9ba345ced02891a6c
in my windws XP Pro....

On Windows 7 Ultimate here, for C:\windows\notepad.exe, it gives - f00aa51c2ed8b2f656318fdc01ee1cf5441011a4
I'm not sure if the same file from build to build would be the same. I would expect, well at least my first guess would be, a common file like notepad.exe used in the same build version would be the same at least.

Hmmm... I am thinking this may be right but I thought SOME of the fingerprint was a part of date installed??? Can anyone test this on XP Pro SP3 to doublecheck??? Or Win 7 since we have a FP of that???

Strange, that would make us twins (or I'm a clone).
