The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

None of the 70 antivirus engines that checked it flagged this launcher. It carries a valid signature from Learning Machines Inc, and the publisher's other files carry no malicious verdicts with us. The combined sandbox verdict was clean, and the program only wrote logs and cache files in its own folder.

Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
  • The publisher has only a short history with us, and two earlier launcher builds from the same signer were rated suspicious. Those builds also had no engine detections.

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 7 questions people ask most about this file.

Is artcraft-launcher.exe safe?
We found nothing harmful in artcraft-launcher.exe. None of the 70 antivirus engines that checked it flag it. It has a valid digital signature from Learning Machines Inc. Run it only if it came from the developer's own website or an official app store.
What is artcraft-launcher.exe?
artcraft-launcher.exe is a Windows program, about 23.0 MB. Its version information says it is “ArtCraft Launcher”. The digital signature from Learning Machines Inc checks out. VirusTotal first saw it on Oct 18, 2026.
How many antivirus engines detected artcraft-launcher.exe?
None of the 70 antivirus engines that checked it flag artcraft-launcher.exe. 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.
Is artcraft-launcher.exe digitally signed?
Yes. artcraft-launcher.exe has a valid digital signature from Learning Machines Inc, which shows the file hasn't been changed since that publisher signed it. Malware is sometimes signed with stolen certificates, so a signature alone isn't proof of safety.
What is the SHA-256 hash of artcraft-launcher.exe?
The SHA-256 fingerprint of artcraft-launcher.exe is ae89d6316cb18ca136c6332a43ace5340651cc66b32846842d180ac3f65bb3e6, and its MD5 is 3c93158786fa0ab6f26ad9216d0e9487. 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 run artcraft-launcher.exe?
We found nothing harmful in artcraft-launcher.exe, and its digital signature checks out. 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 artcraft-launcher.exe?
This report reflects the scan on Oct 23, 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.
