wallpaper32.exe is a virus?
I downloaded Wallpaper Engine and one file during downloading was detected as a malware. One antivirus - ok, it might be a mistake, but score 41/72? Suspicious. It happens every time I download wallpaper engine. It's first time I use this program in a long time. Disabling steam sync and one subscribed wallpaper in workshop didn't help. When steam finishes download, every file (including the other file wallpaper32.exe) is clear. Any idea what's going on?

Wouldn't the hash of the file be different then?

Correct, file hash would have been different.
