Yesterday when I turned my computer on (Levovo, Idealpad U, OS, Windows 😎 I received a warning that stated the following: 

 

There is a file or folder on your computer called c:program which could cause certain applications to not function correctly. Renaming it to c:program1 would solve this problem. Would you like to rename it now?

 

I’m not sure I should do this.

 

I contacted the GeekSquad through online chat and was advised that he they didn not see any indication that this error is from webroot but they also do not see where the error is coming from or what the source may be and the error it indicates doesn't actually exist.  So I brought him to file explorer and showed him the file/folder and the properties.  He maintained that this is not a Webroot issue even after I showed him the below properties.

 

Well, if this doesn’t belong to Webroot, then I’m assuming some superior malware has been able to get through your security program on my system and also forge the digitally signed certificate for Webroot, either way, this is very concerning.

 

What should I do, please advise.

 

Here is the information from file/folder properties of C:Program (no file extenstion listed)
