[Fixed] update.ini contains invalid MD5 checksum for the base Portable Apps platform

The live update.ini file currently has an invalid MD5 checksum in it for the base Portable Apps platform:

[PortableApps.com]
;Beta and BetaChannel are also updated if stable is newest
Name=PortableApps.com Platform
Description=Menu, backup, updater
Category=None
SubCategory=None
URL=https://portableapps.com/
PackageVersion=23.0.0.0
DisplayVersion=23.0
DownloadFile=PortableApps.com_Platform_Setup_23.0.paf.exe
DownloadPath=http://portableapps.com/redirect/?s=p&a=PortableApps.comPlatform&d=pa&wv=%WINDOWSVERSION%&f=
Hash=ab0db50b1aab34a4a6865ebe029c53e2
Hash256=d61ba6224796a9bdcd82bace4728fc6f5a0df818952f158f13d6049828bb4cfb
DownloadSize=6
InstallSize=16
UpdateDate=2022-12-09
;UserAgent=Wget/1.21.3
UserAgent=PortableApps.comPlatform/23.0

Running md5sum and sha256sum:

# md5sum PortableApps.com_Platform_Setup_23.0.paf.exe
67487f793a54ef46bd23d045fc5e37a4  PortableApps.com_Platform_Setup_23.0.paf.exe

# sha256sum PortableApps.com_Platform_Setup_23.0.paf.exe
d61ba6224796a9bdcd82bace4728fc6f5a0df818952f158f13d6049828bb4cfb  PortableApps.com_Platform_Setup_23.0.paf.exe

As can be seen, the SHA-256 hash matches what is in update.ini but the MD5 hash does not match.

Fixed. I'm so used to only doing SHA256 I forgot older platform versions still need it. Thanks for the heads up.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
