Upload to virus total and show the result. Also its not a good idea to run Tor on windows.
Why not
Because windows is full of telemetry and has lots of malware developed for it.
Not to mention the NSA will know you visited the Tor page and have Tor installed.
Its best to use it from Tails
But doesn’t NSA also by that logic know that you have visited Tails download page and have downloaded the ISO at some point?
by the same logic, they won't know what you do inside Tails, nor when you boot it up
