Verdict Suspicious
Is Redex Game- Setup- 2. 9. 67. exe safe? Treat it as suspicious.
Two generic detections lack major or runtime corroboration, but the unsigned, rarely submitted installer has too little publisher history to dismiss them confidently.
Read the whole reasonShow less
Why Suspicious? 2 antivirus engines flag it, but no major engine agrees; nothing else confirms it.
Limited evidence · One sign points to a problem; nothing else confirms it.
If it came from a link, an attachment or a stranger, delete it.
What to do now5 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.
It is only 2 days old. If you're unsure, scan it again in a few days; antivirus engines often catch up on new files.
If you already installed it
Stop using it, run a full scan with your antivirus and watch for unexpected behavior or security alerts.

Why we think so
5 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
Only 2 of the 69 antivirus engines that checked it flagged this installer, using generic rule or machine-learning labels; none of the 18 reporting major antivirus engines did. The combined sandbox verdict was clean and recorded no injection target, but the executable is unsigned, was first seen on Oct 23, 2026, and has only three submitters.
The detection pattern is weak: 2 of the 69 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, neither was major, and neither named a real malware family. The combined sandbox verdict was clean, with no named injection target or other high-risk technique supported by an artefact. The recorded mapping therefore does not establish process injection. However, the executable is unsigned and rarely submitted, so its security-software-style filename is not backed by an established publisher or broad distribution history. With no completed static examination of the bytes and no complete host-reputation cross-check available, the generic detections cannot yet be dismissed with high confidence.
What We Detected
Two of the 69 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the installer. Gridinsoft used a generic trojan rule-based label, while Trapmine used a machine-learning score; none of the 18 reporting major antivirus engines flagged it, and no engine consensus identified a real malware family.
Threat Behavior
The combined sandbox verdict was clean. No injection target, persistence indicator, sample-attributed network contact, or other corroborated high-risk technique was recorded. T1055 appeared only as an unsupported mapping and does not demonstrate that injection occurred. The sole inspected dropped component matched a known-software reference entry.
What To Do Now
The executable is unsigned, has only three submitters, and was first seen on Oct 23, 2026. Because the bytes were not examined by our static analysis and no complete host-reputation result is available, obtain the installer from a verified official release channel and keep security software enabled before running it.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- The combined sandbox verdict was clean, and no high-risk runtime technique had a supporting artefact.
- Only 2 of the 69 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, while all 18 reporting major antivirus engines did not flag it.
- The inspected dropped component matched an NSRL known-software reference entry.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- None of the 18 reporting major antivirus engines flagged the file.
- The combined sandbox verdict was clean and recorded no named injection target.
- No persistence indicators or sample-attributed network contacts were recorded.
- The inspected dropped component matched a known-software reference entry.
- No malware-specific community rules or public sample-database listing matched the hash.
- The Windows executable is unsigned, so no verified publisher identity supports it.
- It has only three submitters and was first seen on Oct 23, 2026.
- Two engines applied generic rule or machine-learning detections.
- No completed static examination of the uploaded bytes is available.
- No complete reputation check of observed hosts is available.

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: Ran commands or a script on the test computer.
Note: Read the user name of the test computer.
Note: Read basic details of the test computer, such as its Windows version.
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.
EvidenceT1055 (sandbox MITRE mapping)
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
Barely seen in the wild and first surfaced recently. 2 antivirus detections make that low prevalence materially relevant, but rarity alone is not proof of malware.
