Ok I didn't notice... Do you (the OP) have a Windows machine
available? There's a Windows version of sha1sum as this file:

ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/binary/sha1sum.exe


Why use such an awkward utility when MD5sum seems to do the same
job, be more convenient, and available everywhere?


'MD5SUM' is not recognised as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.



But 'md5sum' should be.

there is no md5sum installed in Windows by default. md5sum and sha1sum
are the Linux names of the tools. Just like the OP has to go
to ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/binary/sha1sum.exe to get sha1sum.exe
you'd have to get md5sum.exe from somewhere and install it on your windows PC.

In fact, here it is:
http://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/binary/md5sum-w32.zip
unzip and run md5sum.exe
