Hello Songboy,

Here is what I recommend:

Upload the file on this site for analysis.

https://www.virustotal.com/gui/

If after analysis it says that it is virus free, it just may be a file required for the flash drive.

If it is infected, I would then investigate a possible flash drive infection.

Please give me some news.
