How to remove Bpws ransomware

What is Bpws ransomware?

Bpws is a computer virus that exhibits behaviors characteristic of ransomware. It encrypts the files on the infected computer, gives them .bpws file extension, and creates a ransom note named “_readme.txt”. This note contains the virus’s demands, however, it is not unique. Bpws is a part of the STOP/Djvu ransomware family; as a result, it demands the same thing as other viruses in this family. You can verify this yourself by checking out Iswr, another STOP/Djvu virus.
Bpws’s ransom note can be read on the image above. In the note, the virus asks for a payment of 980 US dollars. Victims who pay within three days of infection are promised a 50% discount. This discount exists to manipulate victims into paying quickly instead of having second thoughts or trying to do research.
The hackers don’t want you to do that, because there are ways to remove Bpws ransomware and decrypt .bpws files without paying them money. These ways are not perfect; not all files may be recoverable. However, this is still better than putting your trust in a criminal. We will explain these methods in the guide below.

How to remove Bpto ransomware

What is Bpto ransomware?

Bpto is a ransomware-type virus that belongs to the STOP/Djvu family. All viruses in the family share the majority of their code; as a result, they are nearly identical to one another. You may compare Bpto to other STOP/Djvu viruses such as Isal and verify the similarity by yourself.
Bpto itself is a fairly typical ransomware program; the only unique thing about it is its name. After encrypting the files, ransomware viruses tend to rename them to increase the visibility of the attack. In our case, the files are given .bpto file extension. The virus was named after this extension.
Bpto’s ransom note is not unique. The text and demands it contains are identical to notes left by other STOP/Djvu viruses. Despite this, we have included the note in the image above to serve as an easy reference. Hackers demand $980 from the victim, or $490 if the victim pays quickly.
Obviously, this is not a good deal; at the end of the day, you are still paying for something that was yours to begin with. But it gets worse, as many hackers don’t bother with decrypting the files after getting paid. Our guide presents a viable alternative, a way to remove Bpto ransomware and decrypt .bpto files without any contact with the hacker.

How to remove District ransomware

District ransom note: You only have 96 hours to submit the payment Danger: our contacts change every 3 days Do not hesitate, contact us immediately Then we will not be available Attention: if you do not have money then you do not need to write to us! The file is encrypted with the AES-256 algorithm Only we can decrypt the file! Our email: Everywhere This is the end of the note. Below you will find a guide explaining how to remove District ransomware.

What is District ransomware?

District ransomware is a recently discovered computer virus. It encrypts victims’ data with the intention of holding it ransom; for this reason, it has been categorized as ransomware.
In addition to encrypting the files, District also renames them. The hackers’ e-mail, “altdelete@cock.li”, is added to the end of file names, as well as .district file extension. It also creates a ransom note named “READ_IT.district”. This note can be read on the image above.
The hackers say that victims have only 96 hours to pay them, and that their contacts change every three days. This, however, is inconsistent; 96 hours is four days, not three. This is most likely a lie designed to scare the victims into paying. The note does not mention how much the hackers want for decrypting the files. It is unclear whether this is intentional or an oversight on their part.
Regardless, you’re advised not to contact these criminals. These unscrupulous characters have a reputation of disappearing after receiving the money, without decrypting any files at all. This is why exploring other ways to remove District ransomware and decrypt .district files is a worthwhile endeavor. Some of them can be learned from the guide below.

How to remove CY3 ransomware

CY3 ransom note: all your data has been locked us You want to return? write email jerd@420blaze.it or cybercrypt@tutanota.com This is the end of the note. Below you will find a guide explaining how to remove CY3 ransomware.

What is CY3 ransomware?

CY3 is a ransomware program; this means it’s a virus that is designed to make money via ransom. It belongs to the Dharma family of ransomware. Other examples of Dharma viruses include HBM and RPC. As you can see, many Dharma viruses have three-character names, but there are exceptions too, like Cyberpunk ransomware.
But let’s focus on CY3 specifically. It operates in a rather simple fashion. First, it will encrypt the files on the victim’s machine. Second, it will rename them for visibility purposes, adding some information as well as .CY3 file extension to the names. Third, it will create a ransom note, “info.txt”, which you can read on the image above, and display another ransom note as a pop-up.
The notes do not offer much information, though the pop-up mentions that the hackers want to be paid in Bitcoin. Given that you don’t know how much money they want, you might be tempted to contact them, simply to learn it if nothing else. But, doing so is not without risk: anyone who replies to them might be targeted again in the future.
There are some ways to remove CY3 ransomware and decrypt .CY3 files without contacting the hacker at all. Learn about them in the guide below.
