Terminal message: Why did I receive this? Is it malware? I'm not a developer and don't know how to run chsh –s /bin/zsh, nor sure I want to. Everything was working pretty well. When I re-opened Affinity (V2), the text tool bar at top was hidden.

I don't think this has anything to do with any of the Affinity apps, nor do I think it is malware. Did you by chance open Terminal.app on your Mac by accident? If it is open, the main Mac menu will say "Terminal" just to the right of the Apple logo. If so, you can just click on the word Terminal there to open a menu & choose Quit from it, or use the normal keyboard shortcut for quitting a Mac app (Command + Q).

That said, I'm not sure why it says "You have mail" on the second line. I have never seen anything like that in Terminal.

I was editing a document using Affinity, and the program suddenly quit, with the terminal app in the dock, and on re-opening my Mac.

OK, but what happens if you quit Terminal?
