I have just updated my HD to a SSD and noticed in the sidebar under Places I have the usual listing of Desktop, Home and Documents but another file that’s never been there before has appeared. How can I delete it permanently? Searching for the file name on the computer brings no results.

It look like a zip file that ends with 3x.gz

Thanks.
 
Right-click on the item in Finder, select "Open Enclosing Folder" and delete the file there. To delete it from the Sidebar, drag the item off the Sidebar.
