File --> Compare Hash of ISO use this if you have the hash of the file
File --> Compare ISO use this if you have to compare two isos
File --> Check Hash ISO use this if you want to know the hash of one file

Thanks for your prompt reply David.

Many a times I've noticed that the md5, sha or checksum of the downloaded ISO files changes when I copy or move them from one partition to other or between drives.

Is there a better, reliable and faster utility/tool (other than TeraCopy) that will flag off any changes in the checksum or md5 during copy or transfer process.

Be aware !!!!!
Hash integrity is one of the feature against file corruption. If you really find a change after copy/move operations, please check your system versus malware/virus......

One of the best tool I use is DVDsig by Dariusz Stanislawek
