How to remove CryPy Ransomware: Restore locked files

Easy methods to delete CryPy Ransomware in Windows computer

CryPy Ransomware is another dubious file virus considered as Ransomware. This nasty file virus is made using AES-256 encryption algorithm techniques by cybercriminals. It is designed to encrypt all types or formats of files including documents, databases, ppt xlx, css, html, text, images, audios, videos, games and other formats of files. You can’t access or open your personal files anymore due to its nasty behaviours. During encryption process, it modifies each file by adding CRY_random_characters.cry and replacing the original filename with it.

For example, it renames ‘1.png’ filename to ‘CRYC23J4NKLJDFSG89UDFGDFG9DFG89DUFSGHSDKG.cry’. This ransomware uses different key for each file and sends them to C2 Server controlled by attackers behind this ransomware. After encryption process is finished, ‘’README_FOR_DECRYPT.txt’ text files as ransom notes are dropped into each folder of your computer that contains locked files. The ransom-demanding ransom note states that all files of your computer hard drive have been locked for some reasons and requires paying certain amount of extortion money for the decryption keys/tools.
