Is wabbajack-cli.bat safe?
Tiny 43-byte batch file submitted today with zero engine detections and no prior reputation.
No antivirus engine flagged the file and no sandbox or external-intel data exists. The sample is brand-new and extremely small, so coverage is insufficient for a definitive verdict.

Before running
Treat the file as unverified and avoid running it until more evidence is available.
If you already ran it
Run a full device scan. If its origin cannot be confirmed, delete this file and use a fresh copy from a trusted source.
Intelligence
The saved assessment, checked against the scan evidence and recorded coverage.
The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
No antivirus engine flagged the file and no sandbox or external-intel data exists. The sample is brand-new and extremely small, so coverage is insufficient for a definitive verdict.
All 75 engines returned clean results, including 17 tier-1 engines. The file is a 43-byte DOS batch script first seen today, placing it in the rare_new prevalence bucket. Similar batch files previously examined also lacked enough data for classification. Without sandbox execution or external-intel corroboration, the evidence remains too thin to move beyond unknown.
What We Detected
Zero detections from 75 engines; file is a 43-byte .bat with no code signing. No sandbox trace, dropped children, or external-intel hits are available.
Threat Behavior
No runtime data exists. The file's size and age prevent meaningful static or behavioural conclusions.
What To Do Now
Re-scan after more engines have processed the sample or obtain sandbox results before trusting the script.
- 0/75 engines flagged the file
- no external intelligence hits
- rare_new prevalence with only one submission

What to do now
There isn't enough information to give this file a clear rating.
- Recovery step 01
Be cautious — an unknown rating is not the same as a clean bill of health.
- Recovery step 02
Run it only when it came from the developer's official site or another source you independently trust.
- Recovery step 03
When in doubt, don't run it — or scan it again later once it's more widely seen.
