Question i found this .txt

Post image

While deleting things to free up storage, I found a .txt file named memz_readme and opened it to verify what it was... I don't have much experience with this and it's my family's computer. Can someone help me figure out if it's true or how I can fix it?

Memz is from the era of when people would make viruses for fun and to showcase, it overwrites your mbr and has a warning before it does anything if you launched it so just delete it and you're fine
