Before running the script, ensure you have a valid VirusTotal API key and the required Python libraries installed. Let me know, if you face any issues. ALSO IF YOU LIKE IT, PLEASE DO CONTRIBUTE IN MY REPUTATION. THANKS AGAIN!

Save the script as download_from_virustotal.py

Replace <API_KEY> with your VirusTotal API key.
Replace <FILE_HASH> with the hash of the file you want to download.
Replace <OUTPUT_DIR> with the path to the directory where the file should be saved.

Example:
python download_from_virustotal.py YOUR_API_KEY 44d88612fea8a8f36de82e1278abb02f ./downloads

Make sure, the API key you are using is valid. Testing the API Key using VirusTotal API endpoint, such as retrieving file metadata:

url = f"https://www.virustotal.com/api/v3/files/{file_hash}" response = requests.get(url, headers={"x-apikey": api_key}) print(response.json())

Thank you!
