I’m just wondering if this is connected to a hidden crypto miner using my computer but sending the profits to another person.

I first found a service in my registry that looked sketchy so i followed the directory it showed it was in and it lead to

Program Files > WindowsApps > microsoft.ui.xaml.2.0_2.1810.18004.0_x86_8wekyb3d8bbwe and then in a AppxManifest.xml

I opened the .xml with text document and I saw some things about block hash’s and what looks like some sort of crypto wallet address but i’m not even sure.

could be nothing but i also followed some of the urls in the .xml document and it brings me to a “microsoft” website that is “removed, name changed, or temporarily unavailable”.

I’m not sure if i should delete it or how to delete it for good
