A file called stemmer-english.amd.min.js recently started appearing in my Resources/Scripts folder for my Flare project output. This file has never been here before. I have no idea where it came from or what it does, the Flare user guide doesn't turn up anything.
Is this a legitimate Flare file or did malware somehow creep into my Flare projects?
If it's legitimate, what is stemmer-english.amd.min.js and what does it do? Why did it suddenly appear?
What is stemmer-english.amd.min.js, is it malware?

According to Google it is a script related to search capabilities.
Modern antimalware usually detects these things. If you want to check, find the file and scan it manually.
You can also delete it (or better yet, rename it) and see if you lose some functionality.
