[QUOTE="JM Safe, post: 784209, member: 35684"] Theorically if encryption is done while a file is in use there would be an error. However keep in mind that a ransomware which targets system files specifically can use a "polling" method so it verifies if the files are in use or not. If not then it encrypt them, otherwise it waits the right moment to encrypt system files. [/QUOTE]
