what to do with this? should I delete the file> ?

Unknown file in WordPress core: wp-admin/js/widgets/media-video-widget.max.js

I hope I didnt do the wrong thing but I deleted one and then found there were 12 others so realised it was a bit wreckless to delete the first.

In the details it does say:

‘Details:?This file is in a WordPress core location but is not distributed with this version of WordPress. This scan often includes files left over from a previous WordPress version, but it may also find files added by another plugin, files added by your host, or malicious files added by an attacker.’

Can anyone give me any advice please?

I have a problem with the file changes, every time that I do a scan on Wordfence – this message comes up:

• Filename: /homepages/41/d948940710/htdocs/clickandbuilds/Affiliateadvicetoday/wp-admin/css/colors/midnight/php.ini
• File Type:?Core
• Details: This file is in a WordPress core location but is not distributed with this version of WordPress. This scan often includes files left over from a previous WordPress version, but it may also find files added by another plugin, files added by your host, or malicious files added by an attacker. 245 more similar files were found. Learn More

Please could you help me with this problem – I want this problem removed.

This week my website will go live, and I want to let Google know that I have a website. (SEO, etc.).

sample file in

<module type="WEB_MODULE" version="4">

    <content url="file://$MODULE_DIR$" />
    <orderEntry type="inheritedJdk" />
    <orderEntry type="sourceFolder" forTests="false" />
  </component>
</module>

I searched the net for .name but found nothing
is it a suspicious malicious file?
thanks for replying

I think it is not a dangerous file, but need to be checked by WP Mega Menu and Wordfence plugin coders.

I hope this can be helpfull.

How do I know if this is malicious or whether I can ignore it please?

In the Optimize Wordfence Firewall configuration box there is a

file listed which I do not recognize

. Not sure if I should paste that link here or not. Could it be related to the fact that this is a Managed WordPress website?

Please advise what I should do next.

Filename: wp-admin/D:\\test1.txt
File Type: Core

What’s going on?
Is it possible to delete this file?
Thanks in advance for your help and a reply.

The scan names only 1 file out of the 103 files.

Then I can show them to my host Siteground to see if they are malicious or not.

Thank you
