Symbol on a folder, what does it mean?

I noticed this symbol on a folder I copied to my hard drive ages ago. I cannot figure out what it means or why it's there. Help, please.


MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.0

Where is it located?

Where did it come from?


What's in it?


What are you doing when it presents itself.


Command i open the info pane—look for a clue there if in doubt.

Highlight the icon in the upper left and use Command Z and see if it returns to default


Can you delete it...?
