Potential Steam folder marked as adware - what should I do?

[valle]

So,
I just scanned my PC with adwcleaner, and at the location C:\Users\*my username*\AppData\Local\Snow it detected adware. It seems like a Steam folder, being split up into the 3 folders Config, Logs and SaveGames. An example file in the SaveGames folder is "steam_autocloud.vdf". The Logs folder is empty and Config is split up again in the folders CrashReportClient and WindowsNoEditor. I already reported it as a false postive on adwcleaner, but I'm not 100% sure. Do you also have the folder Snow in the exact same location and is this normal? Or is it a real adware and should I remove it? Thanks for your help.

Many Developer names for many games appear here.
What's inside the folder should give you a hint what it is . And what game maybe it belongs to.
Thats normal to have empty folders for "steam_autocloud.vdf".
Yep all the rest sounds bout right as well.
Could be from a game you once test or downloaded a demo.
Adware is not a virus.
Adware, also known as advertisement-supported software, generates revenue for its developers by automatically generating adverts on your screen, usually within a web browser. Adware is typically created for computers but can also be found on mobile devices. Some forms of adware are highly manipulative and create an open door for malicious programs.

One of the games you got installed is keeping it's stuff in %localappdata%\Snow.

File names typical for an Unreal engine game. A little light googling suggests a game called Til Nord.
