How we scored this 100 out of 100

Signal	Finding	Points
SHA-256 hash published	2 of 2 installers ship a SHA-256 hashWithout a published hash there is no way to prove the file you downloaded is the file the publisher built.	30 / 30
Binary provenance	2 on the publisher's own domainThe strongest signal against a repackaged installer: the file should come from the publisher, not from a mirror nobody vouches for.	35 / 35

Is MEGAsync safe to download?

Yes, in the sense we can actually verify: the installer downloads from mega.nz, which is a domain we have tied to Mega Limited.

Every one of the 2 installers on this page comes with the SHA-256 Mega Limited declared, so you do not have to take our word for it: hash the file you downloaded and compare.

What this does not tell you is whether the software itself is any good, or whether you want what it does once installed. A publisher can ship something you would rather not run and the download is still authentic. We answer the question we can measure and leave the other one to you.

If Windows says “Windows protected your PC” when you run it, that is SmartScreen reporting reputation, not a malware verdict — it shows up on perfectly legitimate software from small publishers and on releases that are simply new. The reverse matters more: no warning does not mean the file was checked.

Install MEGAsync with winget

Windows ships with a package manager, and this program is in it. The identifier below is the one Microsoft's repository uses, which is also where the download URL and hash on this page come from.

Install

winget install --id Mega.MEGASync --exact

Upgrade later

winget upgrade --id Mega.MEGASync

Why --exact: without it winget matches on name as well as identifier, and a search that returns more than one package makes it stop and ask rather than install. Pinning the identifier is what makes the command safe to put in a script.

Not installing anything, or getting an error back? The commands that actually come up covers upgrading everything at once, what --include-unknown is for, and why winget can be missing from a machine that should have it.
