Could you please let me know the reason

According to your feedback, it's malicious:

Malware Warning: 'C64 Chain' is a hidden miner (46/71 on VT). It hijacks your CPU and drops malicious files in Temp folders. Stay away!

But you know that already.

I just wonder why you haven't been banned yet for spreading malware.

You created a topic on February 23 and asked the same question. Did you read the replies posted in that topic?
Your new topic was up for more than a month and was deleted after albon shared his analysis and found out that it was still a malware.

You are very lucky that you are not banned.

The problem is if the Op will be able to read this one. He has the habit of abandoning threads. Maybe he finds it difficult to navigate the forum. The post was moved from the technical section to meta, trust he will be able to find it. If he doesn't reply here, we should expect another Ann thread from him.

The guys have already answered you, stop playing dumb @oxynaz

Go back to the previous topic that they linked and you will find the conclusive technical evidence that I extracted from your files, it will not lie.

Stop repeating your questions and wasting our time.

Since you violated forum rules by distributing a Malware/Trojan disguised as a wallet as confirmed, your post was deleted following my definitive technical proof and my report on your thread; your account deserves a Permaban as well. This is the only way to protect the community from infected devices and resource theft by your hidden miner.

Thank you all for the replies and for taking the time to explain.
I want to be transparent: I am new to this forum and was genuinely unaware of the process used when a thread gets deleted. When my ANN was first removed, I contacted the moderators of the Announcements board directly. They replied that they themselves did not know why it had been deleted and suggested it may have been a global moderator. Based on that, I was expecting any further explanation to come via a private message to my inbox — I did not know that replies had been posted in a separate public thread. I only discovered that thread today. I apologize for the repeated posts — it was not intentional bad faith, it was a lack of understanding of how the forum works.
I have now read albon's analysis in full and posted a detailed technical response here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5575473.msg66560920#msg66560920
In summary:

The temp directory behavior is standard Electron application architecture, identical to VS Code, Discord, and every other Electron app
The high RAM/CPU on launch comes from c64chaind syncing the blockchain, not from the miner
c64miner.exe is based on XMRig (open source) and is flagged as a false positive by all AV vendors — this is documented by the Monero project itself
The miner does NOT start automatically. It only runs when the user navigates to the Mining tab, enters a wallet address, and explicitly clicks Start. At that point it appears in Task Manager labeled as "XMRig miner" and stops immediately when the user clicks Stop

I understand this community takes malware reports very seriously, and I respect that. The source code is fully public on GitHub for anyone who wants to verify the behavior independently.

You are not special. It's pretty annoying for you to splatter your threads across Meta regarding the same issue, If anything, it makes your attempt to appeal the deletion on your ANN a big joke. If I were you, I would just lock this thread and just stick to one thread, it's enough.
