Is this a virus or not?

Hello,

I have detected a file on my computer that malwarebytes has said is a virus, but I don't believe it is. I think it was only detected because it is a .hck file. It is in the file i have attached. the full name of it is riskware.tool.hck. Is this a virus or is it just marked as a virus because it is a file that is .hck? There is a little bug marked next to it.

Adobe Animate.rar

Hi,

We don't detect as a Virus, but as a Riskware tool, in this case, looks like this is a patch for Adobe where a lot of other Antivirus detect this as well:

Such files are always a risk as these are also often bundled with Malware, or since they patch the program, it also makes the program vulnerable.

We do not support giving advice on using cracks/hacktools - so always be careful - hence the marker as RiskWare.
