$AV_NLL folder recently found in my system but used by Norton

Hi ,
I recently noticed $av_nll folder with vault.db file in it created within my system and i tried removing it as i thought of it as virus later but couldn’t . Later when i tried to delete vault.db file it shown me that file is being used by norton .

Just wanted to understand if norton recently changed something which resulted to additional folder/files and what the purpose of the folder.

Hello. I do not see that folder in any of my Windows 10 or 11 devices. Please help us with the following answers:
What is your Norton product and its version?
What is your OS, its version and build?

FWIW! This may answer your question about the folder. It appears to be quarantine related, the article specified Avast. Norton owns Avast and I have found Avast folder in drive C: before too. May be related.
