The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

It carries a valid signature from an individual developer with no prior history in our data. The sandbox run recorded only normal installer activity. It has been seen by 25 submitters over about three months.

Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
  • The engine results date from the file's first scan 88 days ago and have not been refreshed, so later detections would not be reflected here.
  • The signer is an individual with no track record in our data, and signed installers for small games are sometimes used as lures. Nothing in this file's evidence shows that, but the signature does not vouch for the author's reputation.
  • Host reputation for the one external address the installer contacted was not checked.

These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.

Questions & answers

Short answers to the 7 questions people ask most about this file.

Is cardfight.msi safe?
We found nothing harmful in cardfight.msi. None of the 60 antivirus engines that checked it flag it. It has a valid digital signature from Adam Kruchkow. Install it only if it came from the developer's own website or an official app store.
What is cardfight.msi?
cardfight.msi is a Windows installer (MSI), about 53.0 MB. VirusTotal first saw it on Jul 23, 2026.
How many antivirus engines detected cardfight.msi?
None of the 60 antivirus engines that checked it flag cardfight.msi. That is a good sign, but not proof, so we also weigh who made it, how widely it is used and what it did in a test run.
Is cardfight.msi digitally signed?
Yes. cardfight.msi has a valid digital signature from Adam Kruchkow, which shows the file hasn't been changed since that publisher signed it. Malware is sometimes signed with stolen certificates, so a signature alone isn't proof of safety.
What is the SHA-256 hash of cardfight.msi?
The SHA-256 fingerprint of cardfight.msi is 195416c43f4386d50e974af65e5010d1d8f7425b2b5567471b99fbbf3bdf6352, and its MD5 is e39538695e92dccf540ec1bdc9984a97. Two files with the same SHA-256 are identical, so use it to check you have exactly this file, not just one with the same name.
Is it safe to install cardfight.msi?
We found nothing harmful in cardfight.msi, and its digital signature checks out. The main caveat is where you got it: attackers sometimes spread malware under the name of real software, so get it from the official website. If your own antivirus warns about it, check the source before you ignore the warning.
How up to date is this analysis of cardfight.msi?
This report reflects the scan on Sep 2, 2026. A file's fingerprint never changes, but antivirus engines keep learning, so a rating can change later. To get a newer result, scan the file again: we refresh the antivirus results when the saved ones are out of date.
