!killbox folder query

Good day to all
I have recently noticed that I have a folder in my computer by the name of
"!Killbox". Appreciate if anyone can advise me what it's function is and do
I need it or delete it. I'm guessing it has something to do with zip files.
Thanks in advance.

Killbox is a utility to remove undeletable files. Very often Killbox is
used when removing malware. It doesn't have anything to do with zip files.

It's the folder where Killbox places backups of files, etc., you've removed
with it. If you don't need any of the backups, delete the folder.
