Untitled document is taking large space 83GB!

I just found out that Untitled document takes 83GB of my storage. I cannot open it and I don't even know what I is.


Since it's so large I wanted to ask if it's something from the operating system?

If it's not is it safe to delete it?


Thanks

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

It's a free app that is perfectly safe. What it does is give you a graphical representation of the items on your HD, and the bigger the item then the easier to find it, as the representation is scaled. An 83 gig file will stick out like a sore thumb.


At the bottom of the window you'll see the location of the item, and there's a Show in Finder command that will bring you to it.


Where is it? Does this give us any clues?
