I deleted it as you see.

I don’t know whether I did a good thing or not. I cannot find any info about this…

Many thanks for your advice!

its from a backup in system restore…i guess impossible to find out what it was

Thank you for your prompt reply!

After I deleted it, I did not see any problem in my external HDD now, or hope so… I can access all files.

What I am curious about is deleting can harm my files and cause abnormalities in the HDD system…

But I rely on avast.
