Verdict Safe
Is x360ce. exe safe? Yes, no threats found.
Zero engine detections, verified signature, and long-established prevalence outweigh the sandbox heuristics.
Strong evidence · A verified publisher signature, and no engine flags it.
The file can be considered safe for its stated purpose; continue normal security hygiene and obtain future updates only from the legitimate publisher.
Good practice2 tips
We found nothing harmful in this file.
Run it only if it came from the developer's own website or an official app store.
Keep your antivirus and Windows updates switched on.
No scanner can promise a file is 100% safe.

Why we think so
2 points against it and 3 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
No antivirus engine flagged the file across 75 scanners. The executable is signed by Evaldas Jocys and has been submitted by thousands of users since 2020.
The complete absence of detections from 75 reporting engines, including 14 major antivirus engines, is the strongest signal. The file carries a valid digital signature and shows a widely seen and long established prevalence pattern consistent with legitimate software. While sandbox traces map to MITRE techniques and T1543.003, these alone do not override the clean multi-engine result. Similar-hash matches are inconclusive because they lack signer correlation. Contacted-host reputation data is missing, so no complete contacted-host reputation result was available or malicious.
What We Detected
75 engines scanned the sample; 0 returned malicious. The binary is signed by Evaldas Jocys with a verified certificate. Prevalence data shows 21 489 submissions from 3 731 sources since November 2020.
Threat Behavior
One sandbox recorded MITRE techniques T1055 (process injection), T1543.003 (service creation), T1547.001 (registry run keys), T1562.001 (disable security tools), and T1620 (reflective code loading). No malicious sandbox verdict was issued. 14 external IP addresses were contacted, but host-reputation coverage is unavailable.
What To Do Now
Keep security software enabled. If the file is required for Xbox 360 controller emulation, obtain it only from the official Jocys.com distribution channel and verify the digital signature before execution.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- triggeredHeuristics show 'one of our behaviour rules' and 'one of our behaviour rules' on access to the Windows password store
- No contacted-host reputation result was saved — 14 IPs observed but no reputation result available
- similarHashes contain one 'malicious' verdict (extremeinjector) on same import-table fingerprint
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/67 engines flagged the file
- Verified digital signature present
- Established prevalence since 2020
- 14 direct-IP connections observed without domain context
- High-entropy code section (.text entropy 7.84)

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.
How widely this file has been seen
Widely seen in the wild for a long time. High prior this is legitimate; isolated detections on common-old files are usually false positives.
