Get-FileHash myfile.txt

An optional -Algorithm flag lets you choose between MD5, SHA256, etc. It's nice to have this built-in.

For 3rd party options I really like HashTab [0] which is free for personal use. It places a configurable list of hashes in right-click > Properties, with a bonus of comparing the hashes against one you might already have on your clipboard and giving you a green "OK" if it matches.
