csrss.exe in &SysReset

Hello,

I've recently discovered &SysReset and found a csrss.exe file in it, right under the "Scratch" folder. It seems to have been last modified in 2019 and another computer, which I also reset, also has a csrss.exe file, but that file was last modified in 2021 (before I reset it). I'm somewhat suspicious of this file considering, from my knowledge, csrss.exe should only exist in Sys32, though, I've scanned my computer numerous times with Kaspersky and a different 2nd opinion scanner (HitmanPro). Neither of them detect anything wrong. The file has valid digital signatures.

The main reason why I'm so concerned is because my computer did have a malware infection. Though, I performed a PC reset via Windows and thought that was it.

I'm adding the VirusTotal link for it:

A Kaspersky scan with no detections means your system is clean.

But what about miners and RATs?

Have you ever heard of csrss being located here?

Please see this Topic
Also Virus Total is showing → "undetected"

Fair enough, though, again, doesn't csrss.exe being located outside of the Windows folder something to be worried about?

@BigHotStud

For a second opinion please contact Kaspersky Technical Support.
