Verdict Safe
Is Mice
Zero engine detections, long-established prevalence, and no sandbox malice verdict outweigh the unsigned status and limited network evidence.

Why we think so
2 points against it and 4 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
All 72 antivirus engines that checked it returned clean. The file has been submitted 266 times over nearly four years with no malicious labels. Sandbox runs showed no malicious verdict and files it created are clean. Unsigned status and incomplete host-reputation data are the only caveats.
Zero detections across major, smaller, and less reliable engines removes the primary malware signal. The file's age and submission volume indicate it is commodity software rather than a recent threat. Sandbox execution produced no malicious verdict and no malicious files it created. The two offensive MITRE mappings are static-behaviour correlations only and lack corroboration from sandbox verdicts or external intel. Unsigned status prevents the benign-signed-installer rule, but the remaining evidence still supports a safe determination.
What We Detected
76 engines scanned the sample; none flagged malicious or suspicious code. The file is a 64-bit Windows executable first seen on Dec 24, 2022 and submitted 266 times by 241 distinct sources.
Threat Behavior
No sandbox verdict labeled the activity malicious, and no files it created were flagged. Host-reputation cross-check data is unavailable.
What To Do Now
Keep security software enabled. The file shows no current malicious indicators, but treat any unsigned executable with caution and verify its source before execution.
Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
- The missing contacted-host reputation result means no complete host-reputation result is available; direct-no complete contacted-host reputation result was available.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- Zero detections from 76 engines
- Long history of clean submissions
- No malicious sandbox verdict
- No malicious files it created
