I have a pretty good guess. They were using ShellExecute or a similar API with only "notepad” as a name or “edit” as a verb. The search order would end up finding your shortcut first.
This would be odd behavior (the path should be be the full path and start at system32) but I don’t have IE6 and Windows 95 to find the exact API lol.
This is half true, malware may target and look for weaknesses in it but the vendor responds faster too. But it is rare for a lot of time to be spent by “common” malware authors, since most countermeasures are defeated quickly.
It’s sounds like a false positive, do you have less confusing logs
Each instance admin decides whether they require an email. Mine doesn’t, but it’s more important to choose an instance with admins you trust and not located in the US.

Why does your lemmy client have ads?
You can use many KDE apps (konsole, dolphin, kate), and may be able to enable WSL. Look at powershell 7 and windows terminal, winget for a package manager.
It is praised for its anonymity, and it uses an algorithm that purposefully works worse on GPUs and probably ASICS, but don’t quote me on that.
A lot of malware bundles miners for it because of it.
GNOME is one of the most common desktops used, don’t let loud users decide what you can and can’t enjoy. By the way, I hate GNOME.
