New XMR folder appears
A short while ago I noticed a new folder named XMR. I did not create this folder I deleted it, twice and just minutes later it was back. Is this something I should be worried about? Who put it there? How can I remove it so it doesn't come back? Please clear this mystery for me.

Cybercriminals sometimes use folders or files named "XMR" to hide mining malware or malicious scripts that mine Monero on your system without your consent.
