Verdict Suspicious
Is dlssnr_ on_ amd_ setup. exe safe? Treat it as suspicious.
Six of the 71 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, including one major antivirus engine.
Why Suspicious? 6 antivirus engines flag it; nothing else confirms it.
Limited evidence · One sign points to a problem; nothing else confirms it.
Treat the file as suspicious; avoid execution until further vendor detections or sandbox corroboration appear.
What to do now4 steps
Some signs point to a problem, but nothing confirms it is harmful. Treat it with caution.
What to do
Don't install it unless you're sure where it came from.
Check where you got it: an unexpected attachment, a link someone sent you or a re-upload is a red flag.
If you can't confirm where it came from, delete it. If you need the program, download it again from the publisher's own website.
If you already installed it
Stop using it, run a full scan with your antivirus and watch for unexpected behavior or security alerts.
Not sure what to do?

Why we think so
2 points against it and 3 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
The one detection from a major antivirus engine is a generic ML attribute label rather than a named family, limiting confidence. Unsigned status removes any signer-history reassurance. Offensive MITRE techniques observed in the sandbox plus access to the Windows password store raise concern, but medium prevalence and lack of files it created or malicious host contacts keep the file from crossing into a clear malicious verdict.
What We Detected
6 of the 71 antivirus engines that checked it reported malicious, one of them major (Symantec). The file is an unsigned 64-bit PE submitted on Sep 5, 2026 with medium prevalence.
What To Do Now
Do not execute the file on production systems. Keep security software enabled and submit the sample to threat-intel platforms for more evidence.
- No dropped malicious files it created
- No external-intel hits
- Medium prevalence
- Unsigned executable
- Recent first-seen (2 days)

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: Checked whether it was running on a test computer.
Note: Read the user name of the test computer.
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).
Note: Loaded extra code modules while running.
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 recording keystrokes; no keylogging was confirmed.
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.

Signatures and behavior heuristics
Low-severity pattern matches — worth noting but not on their own cause for alarm.
VirusTotal's sandbox summary maps this run to MITRE T1055 (Process Injection), but no injected process of the sample's own was recorded (the analysis VM's own WMI adapter, crash handlers and Chrome updater are not counted). VirusTotal maps T1055 on about half of all files no engine flags, so the mapping alone is not evidence of injection.

Section entropy & packers
No high-entropy executable section or known packer signature was detected. Data and resource sections can still have high entropy without indicating packed code.
