Is YouTubeToMP3Portable.exe safe?
No antivirus engine detected this unsigned portable executable, and one sandbox run produced no offensive behavior, malicious verdict, persistence, or network contacts.
All 75 antivirus engines were free of detections, including 17 reporting tier-1 engines. One completed sandbox run produced no malicious verdict, offensive-only technique, persistence indicator, or contacted domain, although the missing signature and unavailable host-reputation cross-check warrant ordinary caution about download provenance.

Before running
Run it only when it came from the developer's official site or another source you independently trust.
If you already ran it
Keep normal device protection enabled and stop if the file behaves unexpectedly.

The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
All 75 antivirus engines were free of detections, including 17 reporting tier-1 engines. One completed sandbox run produced no malicious verdict, offensive-only technique, persistence indicator, or contacted domain, although the missing signature and unavailable host-reputation cross-check warrant ordinary caution about download provenance.
The strongest evidence is the complete absence of detections across 75 antivirus engines, with all 17 reporting tier-1 engines also silent. One sandbox run recorded ambient system activity but no offensive-only techniques, malicious sandbox verdict, persistence indicator, or network contact. Research feeds provided no matching YARA rules or known-malicious record. The executable is unsigned, so its claimed origin cannot be authenticated, and no complete contacted-host reputation result is available. Two imphash-only historical matches disagree and lack signer co-matching, making them weak evidence because common build frameworks can share imphashes.
What We Detected
None of 75 antivirus engines flagged the executable, and all 17 reporting tier-1 engines returned no detection. Research intelligence also produced no YARAify, MalwareBazaar, or CIRCL match.
Threat Behavior
One completed sandbox run recorded 18 benign-common system techniques but no offensive-only techniques, malicious sandbox verdict, persistence indicator, contacted domain, IP address, or URL. The executable wrote temporary files, which is common for portable or self-extracting applications. A complete contacted-host reputation check was not available, although the observed run contained no network contacts to inspect.
What To Do Now
The main limitation is that the executable is unsigned, so its publisher cannot be verified. Obtain it from the developer's official release channel, retain endpoint protection, and avoid running copies from advertisements, mirrors, or bundled download sites.
Where this verdict could be wrong4 caveats
- signing.applicable=true but signing.signed=false, so no verified publisher identity supports the executable.
- The file carries the tags 'overlay' and 'corrupt', although peAnalysis.highEntropyCode=false and peAnalysis.likelyPacked=false.
- contactedHosts=null, so no completed host-reputation cross-check is available.
- similarHashes[0].verdict='suspicious' for the same imphash, but signerMatchesSubject=false and the filename and publisher context differ.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/75 antivirus engines reported a detection.
- All 17 reporting tier-1 engines returned no detection.
- One sandbox run produced no malicious verdict or offensive-only technique.
- No persistence indicators or observed network contacts were recorded.
- YARAify, MalwareBazaar, and CIRCL returned no hits.
- The Win32 executable is unsigned, preventing publisher verification.
- The file metadata includes the tags 'overlay' and 'corrupt'.
- No complete contacted-host reputation result is available.
- Historical imphash matches are mixed and do not share a signer.
Use only a copy obtained from the application's official release channel and keep endpoint protection enabled. Verify the download hash when the publisher provides one.
