The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

None of the 66 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the DOCX, including the 17 major antivirus engines, and no document rules or malware-specific research rules matched. The file is and was not run in a sandbox, so normal caution remains appropriate when opening an unsolicited document.

Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
  • The document is and has only one recorded submission, so its reputation is not yet established.
  • No sandbox run completed, and no complete contacted-host reputation result is available; static scanning therefore provides most of the evidence.

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 this Word document safe?
We found nothing harmful in this Word document. None of the 66 antivirus engines that checked it flag it. Open it only if you trust the person or website it came from.
What is this Word document?
This Word document is about 166.0 kB. Its original file name is hidden on this page for privacy, so we identify it by its SHA-256 fingerprint. VirusTotal first saw it on Oct 10, 2026.
How many antivirus engines detected this Word document?
None of the 66 antivirus engines that checked it flag this Word document. 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 this Word document?
The SHA-256 fingerprint of this Word document is 66f225c29bc95635f52a781afd8926774078e0da0b855375b70ce884fc943d59, and its MD5 is c8a33440be2471b09ef1eb3b825c23b6. 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 this Word document?
We found nothing harmful in this Word document. 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 this Word document?
This report reflects the scan on Oct 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 To get a newer result, scan the file again: we refresh the antivirus results when the saved ones are out of date.
