Verify Download?

[Daniel Doles <da...@outlook.com>]

Could someone please explain to me why I need to download another tool to verify that the download of AOO worked? If the download is shaky, why would I want to run the risk of a problem.   I’m running Windows 10 on a Dell laptop.
Thank You, Dan

This is to confirm that the file you downloaded is the file actually generated by OpenOffice developers, not a hacked copy as can happen with downloads from unauthorised sites.  If you are happy that your file actually came from the official site redirection, you can decide not to verify,
