Is F1 Manager 2024 Memory Reader.lnk safe?
New Windows shortcut file with zero detections but insufficient coverage for a confident verdict.
All 75 engines returned clean results on this 978-byte LNK file. However, the file is brand-new, rare, and has no sandbox or host-reputation data, leaving coverage too low for a definitive safe or malicious call.

The saved assessment, checked against the scan evidence and recorded coverage.
The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
All 75 engines returned clean results on this 978-byte LNK file. However, the file is brand-new, rare, and has no sandbox or host-reputation data, leaving coverage too low for a definitive safe or malicious call.
Zero malicious detections across 75 engines, including 17 tier-1 engines, is a strong clean signal. The file is a Windows shortcut submitted for the first time today, placing it in the rare_new category. Similar LNK files in the RAG set also received unknown verdicts due to low coverage. No sandbox execution, contacted-host reputation, or external-intel hits are available to corroborate either safety or malice. The combination of perfect engine silence and missing runtime context produces an unknown verdict with moderate confidence.
What We Detected
75 antivirus engines scanned the 978-byte Windows shortcut file; none reported malicious or suspicious indicators. No code-signing data applies to LNK files, and the file carries no brand-mismatch or adversarial filename flags.
Threat Behavior
No sandbox execution results, dropped children, or contacted-host reputation data are present. External intelligence sources (CIRCL, MalwareBazaar, YARAify) returned zero matches. The file is too new for prevalence history.
What To Do Now
Because coverage is low, treat the file with caution. Avoid opening the shortcut until additional context (sandbox trace, source reputation, or further engine coverage) becomes available. Keep endpoint protection enabled.
