Windows equivalent of linux cksum command

Question

I am looking for a way to compute crc checksum cross platform.

cksum works on Linux, AIX, HP-UX Itanium, Solaris, is there a equivalent command of linux cksum in windows too?

%cksum run.sh
1491301976 652 run.sh

Note: no third party tool

In Windows (command prompt) you can use CertUtil, here is the syntax:

CertUtil [Options] -hashfile InFile [HashAlgorithm]

for syntax explanation type in cmd:

CertUtil -hashfile -?

example:

CertUtil -hashfile C:\myFile.txt MD5

default is SHA1 it supports: MD2, MD4, MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512. Unfortunately no CRC32 as Unix shell does.
