How to remove DeroHE Ransomware and recover encrypted files

Complete DeroHE Ransomware removal and files recovery guide

DeroHE Ransomware is a rogue piece of software falls under ransomware category. Systems having this virus detected have all the stored files, including images, audios, videos, documents, presentations, backups, archives and etc become inaccessible. Also, they have the changed filenames -all encrypted files are marked with .DeroHEA extension.

A ransom note within READ_TO_DECRYPT.html appears rightly after the files encryption process is complete to inform them that their files have been encrypted and the only way to get them back is to obtain unique decryption tools from the crooks behind DeroHE Ransomware. The note provides the users the following three ways on how to acquire the decryption tool from the crooks:

• Victims can pressurize IObit developers to pay 100,000 DERO coins (worth 60,000 USD),
• Pay 200 DERO (130 USD) to the DeroHE Ransomware developers,
• Perform some unspecified online tasks

Unfortunately, in many cases with the ransomware infections, without the interference of the crooks behind it the files recovery is not possible. It might be, when the malware is still at the developing stage or has some flaws/ bugs detected in it. Whatever be the case, you should not trust the crooks. They are not reliable. They might provide no decryption tool even if you fulfill all their demands. Better if you think of some alternatives such as backups.

Before that, you should remove DeroHE Ransomware from the system so that it will not interfere during the files recovery method. The ransomware removal can easily be done by using some professional antivirus tool- check our guide below the post for complete tutorial for the same. After successfully removing the cyber infection, use the existing backups and restore the files using backups. If you have no backup available,  refer below the post in the data recovery section where you learn how to restore the files using Shadow Copies. If this option is also not helpful, use data recovery tools.

How does DeroHE Ransomware enter my computer?

Scam campaigns – large scale operations to send thousands of spam emails with malicious files or links as attachments -are commonly used for ransomware delivery. The malware infection happens when the recipients provide a click on the clipped attachment. The emails appear legit and therefore many users fall on the scam and cause the system infection by clicking the malicious files and links. Aside scam campaigns, malware are also distributed through untrustworthy downloading channels such as p2p networks, free file hosting sites and third party downloaders/ installers. Illegal activation tools and fake updaters are some prime examples of this. Cracks download malware, instead of providing software activation. Illegitimate updaters exploit bugs/ flaws of outdated software or directly download malware instead of providing promised updates.
