The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

This is the Unity engine crash handler that ships with many games. It carries a valid signature from Unity Technologies ApS and appears in a known-software reference set. Hundreds of sources have submitted it since Nov 20, 2021, and none of the 70 antivirus engines that checked it flagged it.

Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
  • The file carries a negative community reputation score, and one third-party community annotation labels it suspicious greyware and packed. Our antivirus analysis found no packer and normal section entropy, so this annotation does not match the file's structure.

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 7 questions people ask most about this file.

Is UnityCrashHandler64.exe safe?
We found nothing harmful in UnityCrashHandler64.exe. None of the 70 antivirus engines that checked it flag it. It has a valid digital signature from Unity Technologies ApS. Run it only if it came from the developer's own website or an official app store.
What is UnityCrashHandler64.exe?
UnityCrashHandler64.exe is a Windows program, about 1.2 MB. It carries no version information saying what it is or who made it. VirusTotal first saw it on Nov 20, 2021.
How many antivirus engines detected UnityCrashHandler64.exe?
None of the 70 antivirus engines that checked it flag UnityCrashHandler64.exe. 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.
Is UnityCrashHandler64.exe digitally signed?
Yes. UnityCrashHandler64.exe has a valid digital signature from Unity Technologies ApS, which shows the file hasn't been changed since that publisher signed it. Malware is sometimes signed with stolen certificates, so a signature alone isn't proof of safety.
What is the SHA-256 hash of UnityCrashHandler64.exe?
The SHA-256 fingerprint of UnityCrashHandler64.exe is 4a80a2fce981d9ff78bfae696d411e07b24160d95fa130435879d9dc02de9a9c, and its MD5 is 9d975bd36aff9f92920210e3caf0532f. 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 run UnityCrashHandler64.exe?
We found nothing harmful in UnityCrashHandler64.exe, and its digital signature checks out. 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 UnityCrashHandler64.exe?
This report reflects the scan on Oct 25, 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.
