Does VirusTotal scanned reports can be trusted ?
Absolutely yes. Because it hasĀ 67 antivirus engines where each file goes through them. So according to above result you can see that the scanned file is mark as safe by 67 antivirus engines. Some report you can see 2/67 like result. That mean only 2 of the engines mark that file as a malicious file. This is often a false positive, though in certain circumstances, it could be that some antivirus tools have spotted new malware before others since new malware is not yet detectable as previously mentioned. You can scroll down to see which antivirus tools had a problem with the file. Then go online to ask the Filelinked store (code) creator if s/he is aware of the potential harmful file, view more details about the file, and see community comments about whether the URL is safe or not.
