Is it safe to have multiple DLL files suddenly appearing on the D drive in Windows 11?

Question

Multiple dynamic link library (DLL) files were unexpectedly discovered on the D drive (non-system drive) of a Windows 11 system. The origin of these files is uncertain—whether they are remnants from system/program updates or potential risks. I am seeking methods to identify them and recommendations for handling them.

Keep your system and security software up to date.&nbsp;Avoid downloading or executing unknown files.&nbsp;Regularly perform system scans.

Discovering unexpected DLL files on a non-system drive like D: in Windows 11 can raise concerns about potential security risks or leftover files from updates or uninstalled programs. To address this, you need to identify their origin and determine whether they are safe to keep or should be removed.
