This is great, but I strongly urge people to test files only, and not allow access to scan one's system, as Joe's website disclaims:

"Your complete analysis will be published on this website and accessible to anyone (including screenshots). Upgrade to Cloud Pro to get a private account."

Thanks to everyone for the links.

I've often wondered why people think they need an antivirus when they can simply upload a file to one of these sites, which provide results from 50 or so AntiVirus and Malware websites, who in turn, sell you their crap that tells you the same thing (but only from that one manufacturer's Tech) that sites like VirusTotal tells you... from 50 or so vendors... the best of every world for free!

To elucidate more, Chris over at Chris Titus Tech on YT has a great 13 minute video about the "virus" issue, and my sentiments herein are better explained by Chris (a Great Guy) and inventor of The Best Windows 10 Tool for 2022 and who freely gives it away!

Is Antivirus Worth It? - YT Video
"To many advanced users, Antivirus IS worthless. That is because it uses system resources and provides more annoyances than benefits. However, for many users it is required as they will not know what is a virus or not." - Chris Titus Tech

I highly recommend reading comments from videos we watch, as there is also a plethora of fertile knowledge in comments that decent people offer freely.
