The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

None of the 67 antivirus engines that checked it flagged this archive, and it has been submitted by over 800 distinct sources across more than three years. The sandbox runs came back clean, and the contacted hosts were only the analysis VM's own background traffic.

Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
  • The archive was not uploaded for our own static analysis and YARAify was not available, so those checks are missing. The archive contains an executable and a DLL, and the sandbox flagged long sleeps and debugger detection, which are common in both legitimate and hostile software.

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 6 questions people ask most about this file.

Is WhisperDesktop.zip safe?
We found nothing harmful in WhisperDesktop.zip. None of the 67 antivirus engines that checked it flag it. Open it only if you trust the person or website you got it from.
What is WhisperDesktop.zip?
WhisperDesktop.zip is a ZIP archive, about 476.8 kB. VirusTotal first saw it on Jul 23, 2023.
How many antivirus engines detected WhisperDesktop.zip?
None of the 67 antivirus engines that checked it flag WhisperDesktop.zip. 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.
What is the SHA-256 hash of WhisperDesktop.zip?
The SHA-256 fingerprint of WhisperDesktop.zip is 483a82cc93e89c7e8a0187e4809a026d7b797e051bf4f9e54b6268e1fc574c62, and its MD5 is 8929c820a32d55c9a7283bfc76747192. 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 open or extract WhisperDesktop.zip?
We found nothing harmful in WhisperDesktop.zip. 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 WhisperDesktop.zip?
This report reflects the scan on Oct 21, 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 To get a newer result, scan the file again: we refresh the antivirus results when the saved ones are out of date.
