ScriptShare

This script fixes the windows CIS Benchmark check 18.10.42.7.1: "Ensure 'Enable file hash computation feature' is set to 'Enabled'."

The script checks for administrative privileges, creates the necessary registry key if it does not exist, sets the 'EnableFileHashComputation' DWORD value to 1, and verifies the change to confirm the setting is applied correctly.

Notes

• This script must be run with administrative privileges.
• It modifies the registry directly, which may override Group Policy settings.
• Compatible with PowerShell 5.1 and later.
