I see that several others have a file with exactly the same name in One Drive.  Surely this is no coincidence.  Since it's a hidden file, how many other have it and don't even know it?    

So, what is the story?  What's the file?

It's more interesting if you look at previous versions under properties. 

Love to see some ideas, guesses, suggestions etc.  

Do you have the hidden file ".849C9593-D756-4E56-8D6E-42412F2A707B" in your One Drive too?

    It's not a virus.

    I've never seen this before on my PC until today, after I downloaded an update for EZ Vinyl/Tape Converter from ION USB Products. This could be coincidental. I'd certainly like to think that a piece of kit that was bought from John Lewis wouldn't leave us open for some sort of cyber attack, if that's what these numbers amount to.

    well... actually, this file, as long as I can tell is a file used FOR OneDrive, it is hidden because it is saved in command "/s /h" which means the file will be considered as important for the system, it is not a problem, but a file that updates, it is not meant to be seen, that's why, if you close OneDrive file, you can't find it. It is like an updater, it keeps syncing because there is new data arriving into it (Thanks, Microsoft, just like Riot Games), it is just that.
