Need Help Checking a MediaFire File for Viruses

Asked By CuriousCat42 On

I found a MediaFire file that I'm suspicious about. I've checked it with VirusTotal, but it seems like they always report something as clean. I could really use some help to check this file for any malware. Unfortunately, I don't know how to set up virtual machines or use any other methods for safety. Here's the link to the file: https://www.mediafire.com/file/0t8rgamk7o0vmqf/BlueStacksMicroInstaller_4.220.0.4001_native.exe/file

Thanks for the quick response! I'm specifically looking for an older version of Bluestacks 4, which isn't available on the official site anymore. The link I found is my only option, but it wasn't uploaded by me. Here's a screenshot for reference: https://preview.redd.it/cj6mrnb9e33f1.png?width=1818&format=png&auto=webp&s=6bcf98e09aff6c1a04e6f57374e7ff546ed05acc.

Got it! That makes sense. Sometimes older versions are hard to track down. Just be careful with older installers—they could have vulnerabilities or malware if they're not from trusted sources.

When I checked the URL on VirusTotal, it showed as clean. Could you share a screenshot of what you're seeing? If antivirus programs like Malwarebytes or Norton flag it, that's usually a good indication that the file has some issues. Also, is this file one you uploaded or did someone send it to you? If you're looking for Bluestacks, consider downloading it directly from the official website.
