This is default behavior for office files uploaded/moved to SharePoint. You can disable the setting at library level and then checksum is validated. List property (ParserDisabled) can be updated using PowerShell. Set it to True.
$List=$Ctx.Web.Lists.GetByTitle($ListName)
$Ctx.Load($List)
$Ctx.ExecuteQuery()
Write-host "Parser Disabled value " $List.ParserDisabled
$List.ParserDisabled = $true
$List.Update()
$ctx.ExecuteQuery()
$List=$Ctx.Web.Lists.GetByTitle($ListName)
$Ctx.Load($List)
$Ctx.ExecuteQuery()
Write-host "Parser Disabled value " $List.ParserDisabled
$List.ParserDisabled = $true
$List.Update()
$ctx.ExecuteQuery()

Can this also be used for SharePoint Online or does it only apply to on-premise?

Paul_HK_de_Jong Yes, it works on SPO also.
- DavidG4POct 13, 2023Brass ContributorHello all,
bear with me as I am only a SharePoint user and not an administrator.
We are having major issues with SharePoint resizing all office files once they are uploaded. Do I understand this thread correctly to mean that this behavior can be disabled in SharePoint?
If so, how can I disable this?- skumar9342Oct 13, 2023Copper Contributor
DavidG4P Yes, I think so. File size changes only when additional details get added/associated with it. Please try it on a test library to observe the behaviour.
