[QUOTE="Deleted member 65228, post: 720494"] As an extension to my previous post, sometimes hacking groups actually release the decryption keys or get hacked by another hacking team who will release the stolen decryption keys for a specific ransomware variant. In these scenarios, an AV vendor may use them to make a decryption utility which may work for some but not all people. If you ever do rely on a decryption utility, make sure you keep a backup of the encrypted documents as well in-case they become further damaged by an unsuccessful decryption attempt. [/QUOTE]
