so the .dex is a file inside the apk
because if you try to open an apk file in like 7zip, its basically just a zip file, can explore the contents inside

so it seems like whatever weird antivirus you have unpacked it and detected something suspicious in said file (well, you know what you downloaded)

it says D is a usb drive, what usb drive is this?

For problematic SD cards, format using a digital camera or other non-PC devices. These devices will ignore the damages done by the malware.

Considered quite ancient already with modern smartphones.

I still kept my old Canon PowerShot A20 for such emergencies. Nothing eats a camera using 4xAA batteries.

If you cannot reformat that SD card, it is very likely damaged/ corrupted.

You can try to reformat/ repair it.

https://filehippo.com/download_hp-usb-disk-...ge-format-tool/

Or if you want to try to unlock the file,

Have tried other card readers?
Or it could just be a unlucky coincidence that your SD Card decided to die at this time

Also try
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter/

The official SD Card formatter tool

where did you get it from/what brand?

Usually SD Cards have a decently long warranty period, try to claim it
