PowerRun.exe differs from source

Hachikunny opened this issue · comments

You claimed in this issue that PowerRun.exe comes from this website. The binary from your repo and this source differ, with yours being classified as malware by over four times as many antivirus engines.

  • PowerRun.exe (claimed source), 765KB: 4c82fbafef9bab484a2fbe23e4ec8aac06e8e296d6c9e496f4a589f97fd4ab71
  • PowerRun_x64.exe (claimed source), 913KB: da77bc401ef0d7b8e23be3a9387660172aea176cd9d1248034130811d29942c9

Can you explain this discrepancy? Thanks.

yes. i can explain.
the powerrun.exe is modified by removing icons and one manifest integrated to get less space (~200kb).
in rest is intact.
