In the wake of the recent channel compromise, I would like you to turn your attention to a small little checkbox that is unchecked by default on Windows 10 and 11, which is how bad actors can easily trick lots of people into running malicious scripts they might have downloaded. 
ThioJoe had mentioned this, but only by setting the Layout into "Details". However, not everyone prefers to set their Layout into "Details" and I'm pretty sure this still leaves a hole yet to be plugged. Introducing, "File name extensions", a small little checkbox in the "Show/hide" category under the "View" tab in Windows 10, and in the "Show" sub-dropbox under the "View" dropbox button in Windows 11.
This way, whenever you see something like "Filename.pdf.exe" or some other actual extensions such as ".cmd", you could better see what the actual nature of that "file" is.
I've attached photos below so you can see what it looks like, both for Windows 10 and 11, as well as a demonstration of a file with and without that option checked. I've used this trick to edit config files in Notepad by changing the file extension to ".txt".
