Hello.
I looked into my Task Manager today after noticing UWP suspending apps, and then I found these two unusual files under the Startup section:

I’m curious if they’re safe or if there’s something concerning about them, but I couldn’t find any information online about them.

The UWP isn't that crucial, I was surprised since I saw it in the task manager but still didn't understand its purpose and why it appeared suddenly. However, the two files in startup apps are what concern me. My system details are: Windows 11 10.0.22631, MSI RTX 3060Ti Gaming X, Intel Core I5 12600K, MSI Z690 A motherboard, and Kingston FURY 16GB KIT DDR5 5200MHz. I've attached a screenshot here: https://imgur.com/gNvHqmj and another view: https://imgur.com/gNvHqmj

I believe these files come from games or other programs.
The extended A4 document might be a temporary file.
It was saved for later use when the game or application runs again.
"7" could change to "8" at some point.
Search for their location.

Name can be anything; it doesn't matter.
Focus on the "Command line" column.
By default, this column is hidden—you need to turn it on first to view it.
Right-click the column header and select "Enable Command line".

I turned on the command line column and it stayed the same, just the name. I realized the "7" might be a utility or relates to the playtime of the Once human game I played a few months ago, though I can't figure out what the second file is—it might connect to the game too.

Scroll to the right to see "Command line" following the "Startup impact" column.

I did that.
The issue appears to be fixed since both files came from Once Human after uninstalling it.
