Verdict Malicious

Analyzed , 1 day ago

Is calculator.exe safe? No, we rate this exact file malicious.

19 of the 68 antivirus engines that checked it detect this unsigned executable, and 17 independent products still flag it once shared scan engines are merged, including Microsoft, Sophos and Trellix.

Strong evidence · Two or more major antivirus engines agree.

Don't run this file

Do not run this file and let your security software remove it; if it has already been executed, run a full scan and change passwords for accounts used on that machine. Keep real-time protection enabled throughout.

What to do now4 steps

This file is harmful. Don't run it, and remove it.

If you haven't run it

  1. Don't run this file. Delete it, then empty the Recycle Bin.

If you already ran it

  1. Disconnect the device from the internet, then run a full antivirus scan. Microsoft Defender Offline (Windows Security > Virus & threat protection > Scan options) also finds malware that hides while Windows runs.

  2. If you typed passwords on the device after running it, change them from another device you trust.

  3. If the scan keeps finding it, or the device still acts strangely, scan again with a second-opinion scanner from another company; if that doesn't fix it, back up your personal files and reinstall Windows.

If you already ran it, do these in order.

If you opened or installed it

Avoid banking and sign-ins on that device until it is clean. These free MalwareTips guides walk you through it.

Why we think so

7 points against it and 3 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.

MT AI Engine · Verdict analysis

The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

It was first seen on Nov 10, 2026 with a single submitter, and the antivirus analysis tags it as self-deleting and obfuscated. In the sandbox it launched a shell to run a temporary batch file pointing back at itself, the classic self-removal step, while opening the calculator as a decoy.

Full reasoning

This is an unsigned 89 KB Windows executable with no publisher history at all, first seen on Nov 10, 2026 and submitted by one source. That alone would not decide anything, but 19 of the 68 antivirus engines that checked it flag it, and after merging vendors that share one scan engine, 17 independent products still detect it — including three of the more reliable ones, Microsoft, Sophos and Trellix. The labels vary (generic machine-learning buckets such as Wacatac and GenericRXWV), so no single family is agreed on, but the sheer breadth of agreement on a file nobody has distributed is hard to explain as a false positive. The antivirus analysis also describes it as self-deleting and obfuscated, and our own static inspection found no commercial packer, so the obfuscation is not simply a protector. When it ran it had a command shell execute a temporary batch file that refers back to the sample's own path, which is the usual way a payload removes itself, and it opened the calculator application as cover. No network traffic, persistence or injected process was recorded, and the cross-check of contacted hosts was not available, so the evidence from the test run is incomplete rather than clean.

Detailed assessment

What We Detected

This is a small, unsigned Windows executable, first seen on Nov 10, 2026 and submitted by a single source. 19 of the 68 antivirus engines that checked it flag it; after merging vendors that share one scan engine, 17 independent products still detect it, including three of the highest-reputation ones: Microsoft (Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.B!ml), Sophos (Generic ML unwanted program) and TrellixENS (GenericRXWV-GT). One engine names it as a LaZagne-style credential-dumping tool, another places it loosely in the Nitol family, and the rest use generic trojan or machine-learning labels. The file itself carries the antivirus analysis tags "self-delete" and "obfuscated", yet it is neither packed nor high-entropy, so it is not simply a protected commercial build. It is also extremely rare — one submitter, no distribution history, and no publisher signature to vouch for it.

Threat Behavior

Under observation the sample started, spawned a command shell that executed a batch file from a temporary folder referring back to the sample's own path, and opened the calculator application — a self-cleanup step paired with a decoy, which is a pattern droppers use to remove their own installer from the desktop while appearing to do something harmless. Our own static inspection of the bytes surfaced ordinary Windows capabilities — process and file discovery, command execution, file permissions — and no dropper, script, macro or document exploit logic, which is why the runtime and engine evidence carries the decision here rather than a static finding. A cross-check of any contacted hosts was not available, so we cannot describe the network side as verified either way.

What To Do Now

Do not run this file, even out of curiosity: a program named as a calculator that opens the real calculator itself while executing a temporary batch file is a lure, not a utility. Delete it from your downloads and desktop, empty the recycle bin, and let your security software remove it if it has already been quarantined. If you did execute it, run a full scan, check for anything that started automatically, and change passwords for accounts you use on that machine — particularly browser and email accounts — since one detection names a credential-stealing tool. Keep real-time protection switched on while you do this.

Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
  • The three highest-reputation detections use generic machine-learning buckets rather than one shared family, so the exact threat type and family remain uncertain even though the file is clearly flagged.
  • No remote control traffic, persistence entry or injected process was recorded in the sandbox runs, and the cross-check of any contacted hosts did not complete, so the runtime picture is incomplete rather than proven harmless or proven active.
  • Only one engine names a credential-dumping tool; every other detection is a generic trojan or reputation label, so the stealer characterisation rests on a single source.

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

Points in its favour
  • No outbound network contact, persistence entry or injected process was observed during the sandbox runs.
  • Our own static inspection found ordinary Windows capabilities and no dropper, script, macro or document-exploit logic.
  • No reference database or community malware rule lists this file, and there is no recorded malicious dropped file.
Points against
  • 19 of the 68 antivirus engines that checked it detect it, and 17 independent products still do after accounting for vendors that share one scan engine, including three high-reputation vendors.
  • Unsigned with no publisher history and no distribution record — one submitter, first seen on Nov 10, 2026.
  • The antivirus analysis describes it as self-deleting and obfuscated, and it is not a protected or packed commercial build.
  • When run, it used a command shell to execute a temporary batch file that refers back to its own path — the usual self-removal step for a dropper.
  • One engine labels it as a LaZagne-style credential-dumping tool, and that label matches a high-confidence behaviour pattern.
  • It opened the calculator application while working, which is decoy behaviour rather than a sign the file really is a calculator.

What the test run showed

What the file did on a test computer

Confirmed in the test run

  • Moderate concern: Contains packed or scrambled code that is harder to inspect (common in installers too).

  • Moderate concern: Ran commands or a script on the test computer.

  • Moderate concern: Hid files or windows on the test computer.

  • Note: Read the user name of the test computer.

  • Note: Deleted files or logs during the test run (installers often clean up after themselves).

  • Note: Read basic details of the test computer, such as its Windows version.

  • Note: Looked through folders on the test computer (most installers do this).

Sandbox labels we could not confirm (common in safe files too)

  • Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as code injection, but no injected program was recorded.

  • Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as contacting a server, but no contacted host was recorded.

  • Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as changing how Windows loads code; nothing confirms it.

This file was run on a test computer (a sandbox), not on yours. Labels we could not confirm are listed so you can see them, but they are not treated as evidence against the file.

Threat context

How trojans work

A trojan pretends to be something useful or harmless so that you run it. Once open, it does its real job in the background, from stealing data to opening a back door or downloading more malware.

Bottom line:The disguise is the whole trick, so a trustworthy-looking name or icon means nothing.

Questions & answers

Short answers to the 8 questions people ask most about this file.

Is calculator.exe malware?
Yes. This copy of calculator.exe (SHA-256 3cc0ec27…fd6b) is malicious. Other files with the same name can be different, so check the hash. Don't run it. Delete it, then empty the Recycle Bin. 19 of the 68 antivirus engines that checked it flag it. Antivirus engines classify it as a trojan: malware disguised as something harmless so that you run it. If you've already run it, see the steps below.
What is calculator.exe?
calculator.exe is a Windows program, about 89.1 kB. It carries no version information saying what it is or who made it. VirusTotal first saw it on Nov 10, 2026.
How many antivirus engines detected calculator.exe?
19 of the 68 antivirus engines that checked it flag calculator.exe, including Microsoft and Malwarebytes. We weigh which engines flagged it and what else the scan found, not just the count. The rating comes from all the evidence together, not from this count alone.
I already downloaded and ran calculator.exe — what should I do?
Act quickly. 1) Disconnect the device from the internet. 2) Run a full scan with your antivirus and let it remove what it finds. 3) Change your important passwords from another device you trust, starting with email and banking, and turn on two-step verification. 4) If you bank or shop on this device, watch your accounts and tell your bank about payments you don't recognise. 5) If the scan keeps finding it, back up your personal files and reinstall Windows.
How do I remove calculator.exe?
To remove calculator.exe: 1) run a full scan with your antivirus and let it remove what it finds. 2) Delete it, then empty the Recycle Bin. 3) Check Settings > Apps, your browser extensions, startup apps (Task Manager > Startup apps) and scheduled tasks for anything you don't recognise. 4) Restart and scan again. If it keeps coming back, scan from Safe Mode with Networking, or back up your files and reinstall Windows.
What kind of malware is calculator.exe?
Antivirus engines classify calculator.exe as a trojan: malware disguised as something harmless so that you run it.
What is the SHA-256 hash of calculator.exe?
The SHA-256 fingerprint of calculator.exe is 3cc0ec27ce9b82a6eee8d300e59da18a97805e3bc22ce2d91503d0a14032fd6b, and its MD5 is 98c6c779685955021aa73905ba0c81c3. 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.
How up to date is this analysis of calculator.exe?
This report reflects the scan on Nov 10, 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.
