File "ArcDeviceInfo" - where does it come from?

somehow yesterday night there was this file in my user-root-directory from out of nowhere (it came to live at a time where i was sleeping, exactly at 3:00 am): ArcDeviceInfo… its very small, less than 1KB.

i checked it for virusses and nothing was found. so i kinda feel relieved. but

  • where does it come from
  • what is it?
  • do I need it?

pls find attached some of my infos you might need :wink:
