Is Screenshot 2026-09-19 204026.png safe?
No antivirus engine detected this PNG screenshot, and available intelligence found no malware family, signature, or research-rule match.
All 75 antivirus engines returned without a malicious or suspicious finding, including 17 high-trust engines. The file is a PNG image with no external-intelligence hit; however, it is newly observed and no runtime analysis or complete host-reputation check is available.

The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
All 75 antivirus engines returned without a malicious or suspicious finding, including 17 high-trust engines. The file is a PNG image with no external-intelligence hit; however, it is newly observed and no runtime analysis or complete host-reputation check is available.
Static scanning produced zero malicious and zero suspicious findings across 75 engines. All 17 reporting high-trust engines were clear, with no family consensus or hacktool label. The sample is identified as a PNG image, so executable signing and PE-analysis evidence do not apply. MalwareBazaar, YARAify, and CIRCL supplied no corroborating hit, while five file-type-only comparisons had prior clean outcomes. The exact hash is newly observed, and no completed runtime or contacted-host analysis is available, but those coverage gaps do not outweigh the broad absence of static detections.
What We Detected
The 94,430-byte PNG produced 0 malicious and 0 suspicious findings across 75 antivirus engines. Seventeen high-trust engines, including BitDefender, ESET-NOD32, Kaspersky, Microsoft, and Avast, reported no detection. No malware family, hacktool label, external-intelligence match, or YARA research-rule hit was present.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox observation is available, so runtime behavior cannot be characterized. The contacted-host reputation cross-check was also unavailable, and no network conclusion should be drawn from that missing coverage. As a PNG image, code-signing and PE-specific indicators are not applicable.
What To Do Now
The evidence supports ordinary handling as an image. Keep endpoint protection enabled and rescan if the file changes, produces unexpected prompts, or is later identified as a different file type.
Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
- prevalence.classification=rare_new with 1 submitter and 1 submission, so the exact hash has almost no established history.
- behaviour=null and contactedHosts=null leave runtime behavior and contacted-host reputation unobserved.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/75 engines reported a malicious or suspicious result.
- engines.tier1ReportedClean=17 and engines.tier1Malicious=0.
- externalIntel.malwareBazaar.hit=false and externalIntel.yaraify.ruleCount=0.
- No triggeredHeuristics entries or brandMismatch detection were present.
- Five similarHashes entries with matchKind=filetype had prior 'safe' verdicts.
- The exact SHA-256 has only 1 submission from 1 source and was first observed recently.
- No completed sandbox observation is available.
- contactedHosts=null, so no complete contacted-host reputation result is available.
The file can be handled as a normal PNG based on current static evidence. Keep security protection enabled and rescan if its source is untrusted or its behavior changes.

What to do now
This file appears low risk based on the evidence available now.
- Recovery step 01
View it only when its sender or download source is one you trust.
- Recovery step 02
A clean result reduces known risk, but it cannot guarantee that every new or targeted threat has been detected.
- Recovery step 03
Keep your antivirus and Windows updates switched on so you stay protected.
