Verify your download before you run it.

Compare the artifact with the published SHA256SUMS manifest. A mismatch means you should not run the file.

# macOS
shasum -a 256 -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing

# Linux
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing

# Windows · PowerShell
Get-FileHash .\LaunchZero-2026.07.25-win-x64.exe -Algorithm SHA256

Verify the signed manifest:

gpg --verify SHA256SUMS.asc SHA256SUMS

Use a command, or build what you inspect.

These are secondary paths. Platform downloads above remain the shortest way to setup.
