The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
No engine flagged the file. It has been submitted by over 2,100 sources since 2019 and remains undetected by every tier-1 and tier-2 engine in our network.
The file is a common-old ZIP archive with no malicious detections from any of the 75 engines that scanned it. Its first submission occurred in 2019 and it has accumulated nearly 2,400 submissions from 2,119 unique sources, indicating broad, long-term distribution. No sandbox data, external-intel hits, or triggered heuristics exist to contradict the clean engine results. The absence of code-signing requirements for ZIP files and the lack of any brand-mismatch or adversarial filename signals further support a benign classification.
What We Detected
Zero malicious detections across 75 engines (17 tier-1 engines explicitly reported clean). The archive shows no sandbox execution data, no dropped children, and no external-intel matches from CIRCL or YARAify.
Threat Behavior
No runtime behaviour observed. The file is a portable-game archive (looksLikePortable=true) with no installer hints or security-software masquerading flags.
What To Do Now
The file can be considered safe for normal use. Keep endpoint protection enabled when handling any downloaded archives.
