so today a file called GWIdlMon.exe.9176.dmp appeared on my desktop, when I opened it up my PC went into overdrive used up heaps of the CPU, then when the file opened it was just full of gibberish, what is this file? have I been hacked or hit with malware? I really don’t understand what is going on, the massive spike in CPU usage when I tried to open a text document had me a bit freaked out, the file is 58887kb, all I could find online was that its a glasswire file, so now I’m here, anyone able to shed light on the subject is massively appreciated

And I would assume that the big spike in CPU was caused by that, well I hope it was cause of that haha
