Is Test.bat safe?
A 58-byte .bat file with zero engine detections but only one submission and no runtime data.
No antivirus engine flagged the file, yet coverage is too low for a confident verdict. The batch file is brand-new and lacks sandbox or host-reputation results.

Before running
Treat the file as unverified and avoid running it until more evidence is available.
If you already ran it
Run a full device scan. If its origin cannot be confirmed, delete this file and use a fresh copy from a trusted source.
Intelligence
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.
No antivirus engine flagged the file, yet coverage is too low for a confident verdict. The batch file is brand-new and lacks sandbox or host-reputation results.
Zero malicious detections across 75 engines is a strong clean signal, but the file is only hours old and has a single submission. Similar batch files in the RAG set also received unknown verdicts due to insufficient coverage. Without sandbox execution or contacted-host data, the analysis cannot move beyond low-confidence unknown.
What We Detected
75 engines scanned the 58-byte DOS batch file; none returned a malicious or suspicious result. No code-signing data, sandbox trace, or external-intel hits are present.
Threat Behavior
No runtime behaviour was observed. The file has not been executed in our sandbox, and no contacted hosts or dropped children were recorded.
What To Do Now
Re-scan after more engines have processed the sample or submit it to a sandbox for dynamic analysis before trusting it in any environment.
- 0/75 engines flagged the file
- no external intelligence hits
- rare_new prevalence with only one submission
- no sandbox or contacted-host data available
Treat the file as unverified until additional coverage or dynamic analysis is obtained.

How widely this file has been seen
Barely seen in the wild and first surfaced recently. That limits reputation evidence, but rarity alone is not proof of malware.

What to do now
There isn't enough information to give this file a clear rating.
- Recovery step 01
Be cautious — an unknown rating is not the same as a clean bill of health.
- Recovery step 02
Run it only when it came from the developer's official site or another source you independently trust.
- Recovery step 03
When in doubt, don't run it — or scan it again later once it's more widely seen.
