We found nothing harmful in this file.
Run it only if it came from the developer's own website or an official app store.
Keep your antivirus and Windows updates switched on.

Chapter 02
Why we think so
3 points against it and 4 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
None of the 71 antivirus engines that checked it flagged this executable, including the major engines represented in the scan. The combined sandbox verdict was clean, no injected process was identified, and all nine observed hosts checked against our reputation cache had no malicious or suspicious classification; however, the executable is unsigned.
The antivirus results provide strong support: none of the 71 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, and 71 engines contributed results. The combined sandbox verdict was clean, with no high-risk technique supported by a concrete artefact and no named injection target. Every distinct observed host was covered by the reputation check, and none had an adverse classification. No malware-specific community rule, public malware-database entry, malicious child, packing indicator, or brand conflict was present. The main limitation is that the executable is unsigned and our static analysis was unavailable, so publisher identity and internal code were not independently verified.
What We Detected
None of the 71 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the executable, while 71 engines returned an analysis result. Major engines including Avast, BitDefender, ESET, Kaspersky, and Fortinet reported no detection. No malware-specific rule, public malware-database entry, packing indicator, or conflicting brand claim was found.
Threat Behavior
The combined sandbox verdict was clean. The run contacted Office-related service infrastructure, and the reputation check covered all nine distinct observed domains and IP addresses without identifying a malicious or suspicious host. A T1055 mapping appeared without a named target or other injection artefact, so it does not show that process injection occurred.
What To Do Now
The evidence supports normal use if the installer was obtained through the intended official release channel. Because the executable is unsigned and its internal code was not examined by our static analysis, keep security software enabled and obtain a fresh copy from the official Microsoft download channel if its origin is uncertain.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- The executable is unsigned, so its claimed product identity cannot be authenticated through a publisher certificate.
- It was first seen on Oct 21, 2026 and has only 48 distinct submitters, providing less historical assurance than widely established software.
- Our static analysis was unavailable because the bytes were not uploaded, so the executable's internal code was not examined directly.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- None of the 71 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the executable, and 71 engines returned results.
- The combined sandbox verdict was clean, with no named process-injection target or other high-risk artefact.
- All nine distinct observed hosts were checked, with no malicious or suspicious reputation result.
- No malicious child, persistence indicator, packer, malware-specific community rule, or public malware-database entry was identified.
- The executable is unsigned, so no publisher certificate authenticates its origin.
- It was first seen on Oct 21, 2026 and has a moderate submission history rather than long-established prevalence.
- Its internal code was not examined by our static analysis because the bytes were not uploaded.

Signatures and behavior heuristics
Low-severity pattern matches — worth noting but not on their own cause for alarm.
VirusTotal's sandbox summary maps this run to MITRE T1055 (Process Injection), but no injected process of the sample's own was recorded (the analysis VM's own WMI adapter, crash handlers and Chrome updater are not counted). VirusTotal maps T1055 on about half of all files no engine flags, so the mapping alone is not evidence of injection.

Section entropy & packers
No high-entropy executable section or known packer signature was detected. Data and resource sections can still have high entropy without indicating packed code.
