Low Risk: no threat found, but we could not fully confirm this file.

Questions & answers

Short answers to the 5 questions people ask most about this file.

Is this Word document safe?
This Word document is rated Low Risk: we found no threat, but we could not fully confirm this file. None of the 64 antivirus engines that checked it flag it, but that alone is not enough to call it Safe. Keep normal caution and get it from the official source.
What is this Word document?
This Word document is about 16.6 kB. Its original file name is hidden on this page for privacy, so we identify it by its SHA-256 fingerprint. VirusTotal first saw it on Sep 1, 2026.
How many antivirus engines detected this Word document?
None of the 64 antivirus engines that checked it flag this Word document. 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.
What is the SHA-256 hash of this Word document?
The SHA-256 fingerprint of this Word document is b7a0d5f6f0458bb432625a7be3d77ce68883e14d3eeabe272b19b7361e571da3, and its MD5 is e5585f040d49951a77523e9138bc5392. 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.
How up to date is this analysis of this Word document?
This report reflects the scan on Sep 1, 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 To get a newer result, scan the file again: we refresh the antivirus results when the saved ones are out of date.

This report and its SHA-256 fingerprint are public, so the next person who checks the same file gets an instant answer; documents and images are listed by type instead of their file name. A file we had not seen before is uploaded to VirusTotal, whose security partners and subscribers can download it; MalwareTips deletes its own copy after the scan. If you ran this file and are worried, scan your device with up-to-date security software.
