Safe
This file is a community-developed game modification component that triggered a single generic heuristic detection, which is consistent with common false positives for unsigned .NET assemblies.
4e98c8105c58e2314a…75d416c0a1The reasoning behind this verdict
The MT AI Engine weighs every signal from this scan — antivirus detections, sandbox behaviour, code signing, prevalence and historical matches — to reach a single, evidence-based verdict.
The file exhibits no malicious behavior in our sandbox and lacks any offensive indicators. The single detection from a low-trust engine is a known generic heuristic pattern that frequently misidentifies legitimate .NET code. Given the lack of tier-1 engine consensus and the absence of malicious network or system activity, we conclude this is a false positive. The file's prevalence and context as a game mod further support its benign nature.
Each signal cites a concrete token from the evidence the arbiter saw — engine name, MITRE technique, signer string, or an exact count.
1/74 engines flagged the file (VBA32), while 17/17 tier-1 engines reported it clean.
The detection 'Downloader.MSIL.gen.rexp' is a generic heuristic label often associated with false positives in .NET assemblies.
No offensive MITRE techniques were observed in the sandbox (behaviour.offensiveCount=0).
The file is unsigned (signing.verified=null), which is common for community-developed game modifications.
Similar hashes (e.g., 45715793b8c8...) show no consistent malicious history, supporting the 'ai:low_trust_engines_only' classification.
- 17/17 tier-1 engines report the file as clean
- No offensive MITRE techniques detected
- No malicious network activity or contacted hosts
- Consistent with community-developed game modification patterns
The file is likely a false positive and safe to use if obtained from a reputable source.

Safety FAQ
Common questions about WalkSimulator.dll, answered from the scan data above.
- WalkSimulator.dll appears safe. 73 of 74 antivirus engines report it clean, with only 1 low-confidence detection that read as false positives. As a habit, only run files you downloaded from the official source, since attackers sometimes distribute trojanised copies of legitimate software under the same name.
- WalkSimulator.dll is a Windows executable program, about 227 KB. Our analysis found no threat indicators for it. A file's name can be reused by different files, so we identify it by its cryptographic hash (below).
- 1 of 74 antivirus engines flagged WalkSimulator.dll, 1 of them as outright malicious. A small number of detections can include false positives, so we weigh which engines flagged it and what else the file does, not just the raw count.
- The SHA-256 hash of WalkSimulator.dll is 4e98c8105c58e2314a77b63171019a6e0b315f986360c4250c4b4975d416c0a1, and its MD5 is 599a4632f10b5683577202c4fca3355a. This hash is the file's unique fingerprint — two files with the same SHA-256 are identical. Use it to confirm you're looking at exactly this file (not just one with the same name) when comparing against antivirus databases or a download's published checksum.
- Based on this scan, yes — WalkSimulator.dll shows no threat indicators. The important caveat is source: make sure you downloaded it from the official website or a trusted store, because attackers sometimes distribute malware-laced copies under a legitimate file's name. If your own antivirus flags it while we report it clean, that is most often a false positive, but verify the source before overriding your antivirus.
- This report reflects the scan run on July 20, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of WalkSimulator.dll is fixed — but antivirus coverage improves over time, so a file that looks clean today can pick up detections later (and vice-versa). If you need the latest picture, MalwareTips staff can re-run the analysis from scratch.
