    Kind of weird never seen it there before. Can I delete this out of my user folder? Or is there a way to make it hidden?

    It holds registry setting pertaining to your profile. Well, you could make a restore point. Then make it hidden and see what happens.

    Do not delete!

    If you have hidden/protected files shown then you will see this file.
