Is AutoClicker.exe safe?

Verdict
Suspicious

Unsigned executable with two low-trust detections, process-injection behaviour, and conflicting community reports.

Two of 75 engines flag the file as XWorm-related malware, yet no tier-1 engine agrees. The binary is unsigned, exhibits process-injection and token-manipulation techniques, and contacts 15 raw IPs. Widespread submissions suggest it is common, but the lack of a clean signer and the presence of offensive MITRE techniques keep the risk elevated.

Do not run it until verified

Treat the file as untrusted; obtain a signed, verified version from the legitimate publisher if autoclick functionality is needed.

01

Before running

Do not run it until the source and publisher can be verified independently.

02

If you already ran it

Stop using it, scan the device, and watch for unexpected behavior or security alerts. Get a fresh copy from the developer's official site or an official app store.

Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
  • communityComments include user reports claiming the file is a legitimate autoclicker and that sandbox detections are false positives

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

Recommended action

Treat the file as untrusted; obtain a signed, verified version from the legitimate publisher if autoclick functionality is needed.

What this file does

Observed actions and their security significance

  • High concern: Injected code into another process, a technique that can conceal execution.

  • High concern: Used an input-capture technique that can record credentials or keystrokes.

  • High concern: Changed an auto-start location that can make code run after sign-in or restart.

  • Moderate concern: Contained obfuscated or packed code that makes inspection harder.

  • Moderate concern: Runs hidden system commands (script or shell).

  • Moderate concern: Communicated over a common application protocol; malware can use this for command-and-control.

  • Moderate concern: Scans through your files and folders.

These are observed capabilities from an isolated analysis. A technique does not prove malicious intent on its own, and the file never ran on your device.

What to do now

We couldn't fully clear this file. Treat it with caution.

  1. Recovery step 01

    Don't run it unless you're certain it came from a source you trust.

  2. Recovery step 02

    Check where you got it — an unexpected attachment or a random download link is a red flag.

  3. Recovery step 03

    If its origin cannot be confirmed, delete this file and use a fresh copy from a trusted source. Get a fresh copy from the developer's official site or an official app store.

  4. Recovery step 04

    If you're still unsure, scan it again in a day or two — detections often catch up on newer files.

8 evidence-based answers
Is AutoClicker.exe safe, or is it malware?
Evidence-based answer
AutoClicker.exe is suspicious — treat it as unsafe until you're sure. 2 of 75 antivirus engines flag it (family: xworm); that detection signal contributes to the cautious verdict. Don't run it unless you fully trust where it came from. Get a fresh copy from the developer's official site or an official app store.
What is AutoClicker.exe?
Evidence-based answer
AutoClicker.exe is a Windows executable program, about 1.1 MB. We identify a file by its cryptographic hash rather than its name, because the same filename can be reused by completely different files — the hash below is the reliable fingerprint.
How many antivirus engines detected AutoClicker.exe?
Evidence-based answer
2 of 75 antivirus engines flagged AutoClicker.exe, 2 of them as outright malicious. The raw count alone does not establish safety or danger; we also weigh which engines flagged it and corroborating behavior, identity, reputation, and rule evidence.
I already downloaded and ran AutoClicker.exe — what should I do?
Evidence-based answer
Act quickly. 1) Disconnect the device from the internet to stop the malware communicating or spreading. 2) Run a full scan with reputable anti-malware software (such as Malwarebytes) and quarantine everything it finds. 3) Change your important passwords from a DIFFERENT, clean device — many threats log keystrokes or steal saved credentials. 4) If you bank or shop on this device, watch closely for fraud and alert your bank. 5) For a confirmed infection, the most reliable fix is to back up your personal files and reinstall the operating system for a clean start.
How do I remove AutoClicker.exe?
Evidence-based answer
To remove AutoClicker.exe: 1) restart into Safe Mode (Safe Mode with Networking if you need to download a tool) so the malware doesn't auto-start. 2) Run a full scan with reputable anti-malware software and let it quarantine or delete the detections. 3) Delete this file from the device, then empty the Recycle Bin or Trash. 4) Check your browser extensions, startup items, and scheduled tasks for anything unfamiliar. 5) Reboot and scan again to confirm it's gone. If detections keep coming back, a clean operating-system reinstall is the most dependable cure.
What kind of malware is AutoClicker.exe?
Evidence-based answer
AutoClicker.exe is classified as a backdoor/remote-access trojan that lets an attacker control the device remotely. Engines attribute it to the xworm family. Knowing the family matters because it tells you the likely impact — data theft, remote control, file encryption, or unwanted ads — and guides the cleanup.
What is the SHA-256 hash of AutoClicker.exe?
Evidence-based answer
The SHA-256 hash of AutoClicker.exe is 1ce7da6f2813c2ad1d2e496be6714e08cd618e6d9fe2df26c2bd4d894c9a6ec1, and its MD5 is 913a423f66aa1c41e374e21a911a3c20. This hash is the file's unique fingerprint — two files with the same SHA-256 are identical. Use it to confirm you're looking at exactly this file (not just one with the same name) when comparing against antivirus databases or a download's published checksum.
How up to date is this analysis of AutoClicker.exe?
Evidence-based answer
This report reflects the scan run on May 1, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of AutoClicker.exe is fixed — but antivirus coverage improves over time, so a file that looks clean today can pick up detections later (and vice-versa). If you need the latest picture, MalwareTips staff can re-run the analysis from scratch.
