What a safety record should show
- Original or earliest traceable source.
- Exact filename, size and extension.
- SHA-256 hash to identify the tested file.
- Multi-engine scan date and result link.
- Edition, version, loader and test environment.
- Known limitations and correction history.
Warning signs
- A .exe presented as a standard Java .jar mod.
- Instructions to disable antivirus protection.
- Password-protected archives without a clear reason.
- Multiple misleading download buttons or forced extensions.
- Claims of being official without verifiable creator evidence.
What malware scans cannot prove
A clean scan is evidence, not a guarantee. New threats may be missed, a later file can differ, and behavior inside a game environment may not be exercised by a static scanner. Always compare the hash to the record you reviewed.
Safer installation habits
- Use a separate profile and test world.
- Back up worlds before adding content.
- Keep the operating system and security tools updated.
- Do not grant unnecessary administrator or mobile permissions.
- Remove the file and review logs if behavior is unexpected.

Frequently asked questions
Can a website guarantee a mod is 100% safe?+
No. It can publish evidence and testing details, but no scan or review eliminates every risk.
Why is a SHA-256 hash useful?+
It lets you confirm that your file exactly matches the file that was documented or scanned.
