    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is this virus scanner and file checker really free? +

    Yes, our service is completely free to use. There are no hidden costs, no subscriptions required, and no registration needed.

    Is it safe to upload my files? +

    Files are scanned by the public VirusTotal engine. Do not upload highly sensitive or confidential documents. For more privacy, you can check the file's hash on the VirusTotal website directly without uploading the contents.

    What types of files can I scan? +

    You can scan almost any file type: executables (.exe, .dll), documents (.doc, .pdf, .xls), archives (.zip, .rar), and more.

    What should I do if a threat is detected? +

    If multiple reputable engines flag the file, you should immediately delete it from your system and run a full scan with your locally installed antivirus software.

    How long does a virus scan take? +

    Most file scans complete within 10 to 30 seconds, depending on file size and the number of antivirus engines checking it. The report is generated as soon as all engines finish their analysis.

    Do I need to install any software to use the scanner? +

    No installation is required. Our online virus scanner runs entirely in your web browser, so you can scan files on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, or Android without installing anything.

    What is the maximum file size I can upload? +

    The current maximum upload size is 650 MB per file. For larger files, we recommend splitting them or using a desktop antivirus solution.

    Are the scan results stored or shared? +

    Scan results are tied to a temporary scan ID and are auto-deleted after a short period. Files submitted for scanning are processed by the VirusTotal public API under their privacy policy. We do not sell or share your scan data.

    What is a virus checker? +

    A virus checker is an online tool that scans files for malware, trojans, ransomware, and other threats. Unlike installed antivirus software, a web-based virus checker runs in your browser with no installation, and checks your file against multiple antivirus engines for a verdict in seconds.

    How does a virus checker work? +

    Our virus checker uploads your file and passes it to 70+ antivirus engines that inspect its signature, behavior, and known-threat database. Each engine votes, and you get a combined verdict plus a detailed report showing exactly which engines flagged the file and why.

    What Is a Virus Checker and How Does It Help?

    A virus checker is a tool that inspects a file and tells you whether it contains malware. Unlike antivirus software installed on your device, an online scanner handles a single file on demand, and our file checker combines the verdict of 70+ antivirus engines so you can trust the result for downloads, documents, and email attachments.

    Using a free virus checker before opening a file is the fastest way to avoid ransomware, trojans, and spyware. Most threats arrive through downloads and attachments, and a file launched before it is scanned can lock your data, steal credentials, or give attackers backdoor access to your machine.

    No software to install and no paid license required. Our virus checker works from any browser on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. Upload, wait a few seconds for the multi-engine result, then read a clear report that shows which engines flagged the file and why.

    Think of a virus checker as the safety gate between an unknown file and your computer. Scan anything you downloaded, anything attached to an email, and anything you saved from a website before you click or open it.

    When the analysis finishes, you see a clear summary: safe, suspicious, or malicious. Each flagged result lists the engines that detected it, the threat category, and recommended next steps.

    An online virus scanner is the fastest way to verify a download before opening it. Use it for email attachments, third-party software, and any document you did not create yourself.
