Hello. I apologise if this is in the wrong place.
On my alternate hard drive, I have just found a folder titled with an entirely random sequence of letters and numbers (Google search comes up with nothing for this exact title) and inside is simply the file "install.exe". Windows says that the folder was created four days ago but the .exe was allegedly created in 2011 (prior to my PC's creation). I have scanned it with my AV and it is allegedly safe but when I tried to upload it to VirusTotal permissions were restricted. To me, this suggests that it is some sort of file relating to Windows, but it could also be related to Origin which I have recently reinstalled. Any suggestions as to what it is would be appreciated, thanks!
Edit: For reference, the file is 548kb.
