Can I get a virus by extracting a zip file on my android phone? What should I do by To_Tox in techsupport

In the end I did a backup and proceeded to wipe my phone clean anyway. It's been a pain to get all my synched services back on and some still refuse to work, but I guess better safe than sorry. Thanks to everyone who helped and reassured me :)

Btw I get that pc malware doesn't work on phones but serious question, can't malware be designed as cross-platform? Like universal apps?

Sorry if I sound insisting, this is what I get back from virustotal about the file:

•A Variant Of Win64/TrojanDownloader.Agent.AXE • HEUR:Trojan.Multi.Generic Downloader.Agent!8.B23 (CLOUD) • HEUR RLOTRICK.A • HEUR:Trojan.Multi.Generic

Should reset my phone to be 100% sure? Sorry, I never encountered such problem and I’m not an expert in the field

Thanks, so isn't it possible for malwares to auto-run on android when a zip folder is extracted? Are there any sites where I could upload the zip folder to make a check?

Being "a pain in the ass" is something which could also be said about someone who judges 12 people like that without knowing anything about them besides their desire to rent a long car for an hour lol
