Is there a built in SHA1 and MD5 string encryption in Win10?

Hi,

In light of the 711 million email account and password database being published. I would like to check if the passwords that my parents use have already been matched with SHA1 or MD5 hashes.

My parents are well into their 60s. They don't want to bother with downloading programs and doing this and that. So i want to create a small script that will take their passwords and convert them into SHA1 and MD5 hashes and save it in to a text document. I already have a perl implementation of this, but at a 138MB/500MB download just for perl is quite beefy and seems unnecessary.

So to start off with, i think something like a bat file would be the easiest with any SHA1 or MD5 builtin functions would be the best.

Does Win10 have built in SHA1 and MD5 functions to encrypt strings?

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
