  1. Weird file appearing on windows explorer "recent files"


    Hi everyone my name is Rod and I have a weird "problem" and not sure if I should worry if at all, it's my first time posting here and if I make any mistakes I apologize in advance.
    I recently did a fresh install of win10 x64 on my HTPC and everything works fine except for this weird file that appears only on the "recent files" in windows explorer, file's location is the desktop, except that I cannot see that file anywhere on the desktop. the file's name is in Chinese (I guess) if anyone has seen this before and knows what do do I'd appreciate any advice
    Thanks

    Why has a new hard drive with the name “System Reserved (ZWeird file appearing on windows explorer "recent files" :)” appeared on my PC

    For some odd reason, it is no longer shown in "file explorer". Weird!

    Enter on keypad " no. + # "

    petrib is correct. It is a shortcut to SIM numbers.

    Numbers on your SIM might not be in the position you think. Just because they appear sorted in alphabetical order in the contacts list doesn't mean that they appear in that same order on the SIM. On the SIM they appear in the order in which you input them,
    unless you delete a number in which case the next one entered takes its place.

    HI and welcome to the forum.

    I am guessing from the screenshot that you torrent downloads.
