Hashes mismatch error when installing Google Chrome with choco #61

Closed Eprince-hub closed 5 months ago

Eprince-hub commented 5 months ago

Following the system setup for the Windows computer, I got an error on step 10 when I tried to install Google Chrome with choco using the choco install googlechrome -y command

I am getting the error below, which shows that there is a mismatch in the hashes used by the checksum

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> choco install googlechrome -y

Consider passing the actual checksums through with --checksum --checksum64 once you validate the checksums are appropriate. A less secure option is to pass --ignore-checksums if necessary.

A possible cause of this is that the new Google Chrome update does not have the correct checksum

Thank you @karlhorky

Another thing that helped was waiting and trying this same command choco install googlechrome -y again which was able to install the Google Chrome

I am now closing this issue
