Gotchas

  • 1 observed build carry no OriginalFilename at all.
  • OriginalFilename changed across builds: SETUP.EXE (x64; Win10 1507 → Win11 26H1); isetup.exe (x86; v10.0.26100.9549). Match every value.
  • Same OriginalFilename as setup16.exe, so OriginalFilename alone can't tell them apart.
  • LOLRMM lists VIZOR as shipping a file named setup.exe. That's a different binary reusing the name; this page covers the one parsed below. Rename detection on OriginalFilename separates them.
