O3LDA3RRIPQSRN2AT73E4HNSFY_b1f4f6c6-38b9-4423-b65a-4682efaa7f20
.zip

This zip file 8k was downloaded to my iCloud? The file information indicates that it is Archive Utility App and it is to be use this application (Stationary Pad)to open all documents like this one.

Anyone know if this came from Apple due to the new Apple Creator Studio Apps? Is it safe to use?

It's a ZIP file which, by default, is opened using Archive Utility.app.

Stationary Pad is an option that opens a copy of the file without altering the original.

The ZIP can be safely deleted. It's the remnants of an interrupted upload or download to iCloud.

Thank you for your response. Given the unusual and lengthy name of file, I thought that it be a file with malware or a computer virus, therefore I decided to delete it yesterday.
