DietPepsi Posted September 12, 2021 ID:1479468 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Hello, This ransomware attack is not very recent but has withheld very important files such as cv's and pictures and I would like to get them back. I believe I have removed the Malware/Ransomware on my laptop but im not completely sure. Below I have attached The TXT file I received in every folder after all my pictures got encrypted. If there is anyway I can retrieve these encrypted files I would be overjoyed I tried a free unlocking software but it did not work however worked for a friend of mine. If you can help with decrypting just one file or picture I would be greatly indebted to you, If yu are reading this and you are willing to help me I would like to say thank you very much if it fails or not for attempting to help.

Maurice Naggar Posted September 12, 2021 ID:1479473 Share Posted September 12, 2021 (edited) Hello Please see this article at Bleepingcomputer about the ransomware https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/574608/crypt0l0cker-support-topic/ [that ransomware goes back to the middle of the last decade.] also see https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/f/239/ransomware-help-tech-support/ Please know that Malwarebytes has no decrypter for ransomware. Please also know that ransomwares self-delete once they have encrypted user files. Edited September 13, 2021 by Maurice Naggar Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maurice Naggar Posted September 13, 2021 ID:1479693 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Get your rest. As I said before, Malwarebytes has no decrypter. We are unable to help you about your encrypted user files. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
