File / URL Check Quietmusic compromised?

Hello, i'm kind of freaking out as every ai tells me this is malware. i have downloaded the file and put them in their vst folders, but didn't run them

I make music using FL studio, and often use third party plugins. these are NOT cracked, and are free samples.

I'm using some plugins from someone called "Quietmusic ", I used these in the past for multiple years without any issue, but i had bad cybersecurity when I was younger, so i put all files through virustotal now.

As far as I know, i got them from their official gumroad page https://quietmusic[.]gumroad[.]com/l/KdHou

Both of them run some sort of "readme.dll"file, and i'm really scared it's malware.

I'm not really tech savvy, and I use AI to look at the results. However, I know how faulty AI is, and i don't know who else to ask.

Please help, thank you.

We appreciate you giving advice, however in this specific scenario your comment was deemed too generic, possibly harmful to the user or is not entirely relevant to their case from what they described and the details. It is also possible that you haven't elaborated on your advice enough, you haven't instructed the user on what to exactly do step by step or provided false sense of security to the user.

This includes (and is not limited to) recommending diagnostic tools for experts, recommending forensic steps that are unclear, recommending removal steps that are tricky to perform for the average home user and steps where it is easy for unexperienced user to cause damage to their device / operating system, determining false or true positives based on not enough input or data or recommending steps that are not entirely necessary.

We appreciate you trying to help regardless. If you want further explanation, you can reach out via modmail.

I know AI is shitty when it comes to these things, but what else do i do? Asking here or in a similar subreddit for every single file I download is out of the question, and i’m extremely unfamiliar with cybersecurity myself. The file itself had around 300 downloads which is pretty low, but a lot of these plugins are not that popular.

Looking at the two VirusTotal reports, they were uploaded 2022/2023 yet have zero detections.

I downloaded both files from that website for static analysis (not running it). Nothing appeared to be out of the ordinary.

For reference, the two archives I looked at are:
