    My hosting provider uses EasyWP. My site got an alert involving your plugin.

    “EasyWP detected 1 pua files.

    Your website has been compromised by malwares, posing a significant threat to your online presence and visitor security. “

    According to their tech support their system in reporting this file

    The path to the file is wp-content/plugins/wp-file-manager/file_folder_manager.php

    as the “malicious” code. can you explain why?

    If not I may have to stop using the plugin.
