Hello Jeffrey,
Unfortunately, you were infected with Cryptowall malware. Basically it encrypts your files and ask for ransom to decrypt them.
If you want more information, you can read about Cryptowall on this link:
CryptoWall and HELP_DECRYPT Ransomware Information Guide and FAQ
What I can say about this is that there is no way to restore encrypted files to working condition. Basically you can either save them somewhere safe if they are too important, because in future they will probably find a fix for this encryption so you can restore your files to working condition. But this is only my assumption.
Do you still have this fake email you received?
There are still some leftover I would like to clean. Also, you can run Adwcleaner again and clean all found items.
Fix with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool
This fix was created for this user for use on that particular machine.
Running it on another one may cause damage and render the system unstable.
Download attached
fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop:
Both files,
FRST and
fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!
- Right-click on
icon and select
Run as Administrator to start the tool.
(XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
- Press the Fix button just once and wait.
- If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
- When finished FRST will generate a log on the Desktop, called Fixlog.txt.
Please attach it to your reply.
