I dual boot windows and popos. On my windows machine I ran windows security and got a severe warning.

It identified the following as Tnega!ml

Trash-1000\files\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\proton 6.3\proton_dist.tar/lib/wine/wordpad.exe

Can you evaluate. Is this truly a malicious bit? Or a false positive?
