Check File Before Download
No downloads. No installs. Header check only.

Spot fake download links before you click

Paste a URL. We check response headers (type/size) to tell whether it’s a real file or a web page pretending to be a download.

Direct file: shows type & size
Redirect/HTML: likely fake button
Never enter passwords on download pages
Ads may open a separate tab/popunder during navigation. If you use an adblocker, you may not see ads.
Tip: This is not an antivirus. It helps you verify what a link actually returns.

How to use

  • 1) Paste the link you’re about to click.
  • 2) Click Analyze. You’ll be sent to the result page.
  • 3) If it returns text/html, it’s usually a fake download page.
  • 4) If it returns a file type + size, it’s likely a real file.
