Hi there Dev Kinsta,

Hello @mesha :waving_hand:

These are a security log feature files on WSL.

You can delete them via running command: find . -name “*:Zone.Identifier” -type f -delete

To prevent future creation:

  • Open the Local Group Policy Editor by pressing Win + R, typing gpedit.msc, and pressing Enter.

  • Navigate to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Attachment Manager.

  • Enable the policy named “Do not preserve zone information in file attachments.”

Let me know if this helps :slight_smile:

Kind regards,
