Workflow fit
Use Unknown File Triage in the right place
If you are unsure, use the related tools and family hub to choose the closest workflow before committing to an output.
Best for
- Local file and archive workflows where packaging, extraction, listing, type checks, metadata, or hashes help before sharing.
- Inspecting what a file appears to be before using it in a larger workflow.
- A focused inspect task where the expected output is file-triage-report.
Before you start
- This tool runs in the browser, so keep the tab open until the result is created and downloaded or copied.
- Treat files and archives from unknown sources as untrusted, even when the extension looks normal.
- List archive contents before extraction when you only need to inspect what is inside.
- Keep source files until the ZIP or TAR output has been opened and checked.
- Use the report as a decision aid, then route to cleanup, conversion, or verification tools if it finds something notable.
Quality checks
- Treat inspection output as a signal report, not as a guarantee that every possible issue was checked.
- Verify file count, names, sizes, checksums, and detected type against what you expected.
- Remember that file type and metadata inspection are not malware scanning.
- Checksum final artifacts when exact byte identity matters.
- Copy or download the result only after confirming the displayed output matches the task you intended.
Common mistakes
- Opening extracted files automatically is risky; inspect and download deliberately.
- Assuming an extension proves file type. Byte signatures and browser metadata can disagree.
- Using checksum output as proof that a file is safe. Checksums prove identity, not safety.
- Closing the tab before downloading or copying a browser-generated result.
- Treating the first result as final without checking the destination requirement.
