Query on File server (.lnk files)

Hello All,

In our SIEM application , We used to see .lnk files present in file servers is classified as Malware by EDR . On performing investigation these .lnk files are normal and getting triggered by real time scan on EDR.

Just want to understand, Is it safe to exclude this .lnk extention file from file servers ?

​

Thank you
