This option sets the checksum in the header of an .EXE file.

The operating system requires the checksum for certain files, such as device drivers. It is recommended that you set the checksum for release versions of your programs to ensure compatibility with future operating systems.

The /RELEASE option is set by default when the /SUBSYSTEM:NATIVE option is specified.
