Is this a virus?
« on: June 21, 2023, 05:35:21 pm »
I have visual studio 2017.
Few days ago I noticed Chinese in create new project.
Google translates it as " Umbrella Air G: ".

I downloaded avast free and it finds no threats, even in targeted scan of the vs directory.

Please tell me have you seen this before?

Many thanks.

Looks more like data corruption. Along with Chinese you have some unrecognized characters and Arabic (?).

I figured something out.
The tree is giving me directories in my visual studio folder.


EDIT:

OK so it is a *.vstemplate file. Just got to find it.
