File gets detected as keygen.


Recommended Posts

Downloaded software from a Russian forum. Yea, I know.. Shouldn't download random stuff.
Anyway, it has this file, and it gets detected as a keygen in VirusTotal and Generic.Malware.AI.DDS by Malwarebytes on VirusTotal and the Desktop app.
Did some googling and found out it's probably a key generation tool, but these are often bundled with malware or viruses.
Could someone tell me if this file is actually a virus or just a key generation tool without nefarious purposes?
Software looked cool and wanted to try it out.

I dont believe this file is dangerous, since I tried it in a sandbox environment while using a tool to detect file and registery changes. It didnt touch anything it shouldnt touch, from what i was able to tell. So, I think, it's a false AI antivirus detection.
