Unknown devices showing up in the file explorer
 When I access the root folder of file explorer, there is an unknown device named Tesla_Model_3 listed there. I don't have a Tesla Model 3? What could be the problem?

It’s possible that the "Tesla_Model_3" device showing up in your File Explorer is either a misidentified device or a connected external device with a similar name. It could also be related to a misconfigured USB device or network share. To fix it, try:
- Unplugging any USB devices to see if the name disappears.
- Check for network drives or connected devices with unusual names.
- Scan for malware or unusual software that might cause this.
- Rebooting to see if it’s just a glitch.
If it persists, you may need to check your device manager for any unknown hardware or reset your File Explorer settings.
