This appeared on the desktop. Send it to recycle bin or keep? What does it
mean? It has eight empty files.

It's probably not used and might be a result of some malware, so malware
scans may be in order here.

Try renaming it and see what happens. That's as good as deleting it; if
it's being used you'll get errors and if not, nothing will happen, in which
case you can then delete it.
 
Hi

If you run that from Start/Run you will see the contents of your root folder
on the hard disk. It is not malware. I use it all the time in shortcuts.
I'm not sure why it is on your Desktop though.

As suggested by Poprivet the folder was renamed and nothing happened. Then
it was deleted wth no apparent ill effects. Thanks.
 
Hi

That's OK, unless some of your shortcuts have that reference in them.
