Comments and Reviews
Terrible. Absolutely unforgivably abysmal.
The UI is nonstandard, poorly designed, and not user friendly.
I registered the shell extension, but neither of its functions worked at all.
I configured Winja, then restarted it as Administrator, and all the settings had been lost.
I invoked the "QUICK PROCESS SCAN" function, which is anything but, since each process is queued for scanning due to VirusTotal's throttling. I asked Winja to scan running processes (of which I have many), and after discovering that it would take all day to complete, found no way to make it stop without terminating Winja completely.
After "uninstalling" Winja, I found it removes hardly anything. It left its AppData folder, its scheduled task, its registry entries, its shell extension registration, its CLSID, etc.
There is no excuse for an application to be this utterly awful. None.
Winja (aka. Windows Winja) • a very corny play on words, (Ninja -> Winja)
Is a file up-loader ONLY . . . to VirusTotal ONLY. Winja does not perform ANY checks, it only extracts data from VirusTotal webpage
Replicates VirusTotal Winja is NOT just a signature verifier. It relies on VirusTotal for a "SigCheck" Virus Total does not always report on signatures, so Winja cannot verify signatures, comprehensively.
SysInternals "SigCheck" (by Microsoft) is a pure sig-check, (command based) "SigCheckGUI" gives a true sig-check without the bloat of Winja extras.
Who cannot drag drop a file onto VT ? ... I also like to access other info on VT scan page
