This section provides the list of file types that Virtual Analyzer supports. Trend Micro identifies files by true file type and not by extension. Sample file extensions are provided for reference.

Note:

Updates to the Virtual Analyzer Configuration Pattern may also include added support for new file types. After the update, Virtual Analyzer places new file types in the Analyzed list.
