    God d--- man PCs and all this s--- is so confusing and stressful. Funny to see how much things have really changed if this was made in SL guarantee it wouldn't get a single reply and if it did it wouldn't be a serious one. Hope you get your stuff fixed up man. Shout out to @DetroitSkills respect man.

    any damage done to your files by now is non reversable, if you truly dont care about the pc just reinstall dude, the thing is, you cant back up those encrypted files now, do you have a previous backup?

    1. Go to the website and download this Linux OS: http://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=2864
    It's just an operating system, it works like Windows or OSX
    2. Download this tool: http://www.linuxliveusb.com/
    So you can put the OS in a pendrive
    3. Open the program, insert the pendrive, search for the file and wait
    4. Reboot the computer. If it starts Windows instead of Linux change the BIOS configuration and disable UEFI
    5. Enter to the operating sytem
    6. Go to the file explorer and search for your Windows folder. You should be able to find it easily
    7. Copy the archives to another place (external hard drive, pendrive, secondary partition, whatever)

    Done. Then you should reinstall Windows.

    No, he can't decrypt the files without having the key. It's impossible to break the encryption, nobody in the world can do it. Not NSA, not China, not Russia. It's not possible. Reformat and learn from your mistakes.

    Don't bother with this, not going to work

    even if, they mst likely wouldnt give it back in full, theres always s--- lingering after ransomware has been contracted, sucks but the only way to learn is to go through the mistake
