: Look at the end of the filename (e.g., .zip, .exe, .mp4). Be extremely cautious with .exe , .bat , or .msi files from untrusted sources.

Could you tell me or what the actual name of the file is? I can help you look for reviews or safety info if I have more context.

: Before opening any unknown download, upload the file or the URL to VirusTotal to check for malware.
