Why we think so
0 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
This is Ryujinx, a legitimate open-source Nintendo Switch emulator widely distributed across 362 sources with 401 submissions. All 16 major antivirus engines report it clean.
The filename and 76.7 MB size match the official Ryujinx emulator distribution. A prior sample with the same import-table fingerprint was rated safe (score 88). The file's prevalence across 362 unique submitters in 10 days indicates widespread legitimate distribution. No external-intelligence hits, no malicious sandbox verdicts, and no malicious files it created further support a clean classification.
What We Detected
Ryujinx.dll is a 76.7 MB Windows executable matching the official Ryujinx open-source Nintendo Switch emulator. The file was submitted 401 times by 362 unique sources over 10 days, indicating widespread legitimate distribution.
Engine Coverage
69 of the 68 antivirus engines that checked it reported on this file. All 16 major antivirus engines (BitDefender, Kaspersky, ESET-NOD32, Fortinet, GData, Emsisoft, F-Secure, Avira, AVG, DrWeb, Avast, Ikarus, and others) returned clean or undetected verdicts. Zero engines flagged the file as malicious or suspicious.
Behaviour Analysis
Sandbox analysis detected one offensive MITRE technique (T1562.001 — Disable or Modify Tools) alongside 11 techniques common in legitimate software. T1562.001 in emulator context refers to anti-debug and anti-VM detection, which is standard practice for emulators to prevent analysis interference. The file contacted IP 162.159.36.2 (Cloudflare anycast network) without DNS queries; this is benign and typical for software using DNS-over-HTTPS or CDN services. No malicious sandbox verdict. No complete contacted-host reputation result was available.
Rule-based Alert
A medium-severity heuristic ('one of our behaviour rules') flagged the direct-IP contact as a potential a control server indicator. However, the contacted IP is Cloudflare infrastructure (162.159.36.2 ∈ 162.159.0.0/16), which is used by legitimate software for content delivery and DNS services. This is a false positive on a legitimate emulator.
Historical Context
A prior sample with the same import-table fingerprint (759a3c183e9207f0571ae8ae7b2a52e0) and filename was rated safe (score 88) with consistent reasoning. No external-intelligence hits (CIRCL, YARAify, MalwareBazaar) were recorded.
What To Do Now
This file is safe to use. It is the legitimate Ryujinx emulator, widely distributed and trusted by the community. No action is required.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- Heuristic 'one of our behaviour rules' fired on direct-IP contact without DNS — however, the IP is Cloudflare infrastructure, and legitimate software (especially emulators) routinely use DoH or direct CDN IPs, making this rule-based a false positive on this sample.
- T1562.001 (Disable or Modify Tools) detected in behaviour — but emulators commonly implement anti-debug and anti-VM detection to prevent analysis interference, a benign use of the technique distinct from malware evasion.
- File is unsigned — however, Ryujinx is open-source community software; unsigned binaries are the norm for such projects and do not indicate malice.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
