WhatsApp is creating Documents, Being Saved By Sparkle

WhatsApp is creating these folders, and does not let my AVG security to close and clean it?

Can I simply get rid of these Folders?

I did in the past, and there was no problem using WhatsApp on my M1 MacMini

Whatsapp and MacAir I am using whatsapp web on my new mac air 2. when I click on whatsapp media files, the files gets saved in my download folder instead of opening (so that I can decide if I want to save them at all !!). Can I only view the whatsapp files instead of saving them each time ? If I have to save them, can I default only Whatsapp attachments to a new folder instead of all attachments

Empty file named "icon?" appearing in folders Ventura I am suddenly seeing an empty file in many folders that is showing as "Icon?" with an older date - around 2020. Most of the folders I see having this file have a customized icon for the file. Either a color or a graphic change. I can see from past queries on this that the "icon?" file should be a hidden file, but I don't see how to globally hide these again, or what caused it. It seemed to show up after the last security update I did for Ventura. Does anyone else have this problem still? How do I globally hide these again? I don't want to accidentally delete them. Thank you.
