Scotty comment has me believing that this was downloaded and run when I wanted to find out if my PC could run No Man's Sky.

This File was used to test my computer's compatibility with a game. To see if the game would run on my computer.

Just found it on my laptop and as I read through I realised where it came from.

www.systemrequirementslab.com

Helps determine whether or not games are compatible with your computer. As long as that site is legit then all should be fine.
