Delete AngryKite Ransomware: Manual Removal Guide (Automatic Removal Included)

What can you expect from AngryKite Ransomware?

 

AngryKite Ransomware is derived from KRider file encoder trojan horse. Its main executable file was found on the affected computer running as angryKite_v3.exe.bin. Following successful intrusion, the ransomware encrypts certain types of files on the affected computer using military grade cipher. As a result, your files become totally inaccessible and useless. Taking advantage of this, ransomware developers display a popup alert entitled as “WARNING: SYSTEM MAY HAVE FOUND anonymous encryption on your computer. You would not be able to access the files on your computer. You system may have found two malicious viruses Rootkit.Encrypt and Trojan.Spyware. Thus, your personal and Financial information MAY NOT BE SAFE.” Further, they suggest you to call on 1-855-545-6800 to avoid more damages.

However, you should note that provided helpline number is not operated by trustworthy tech support companies. Apparently, this number is managed by con artists who have developed AngryKite Ransomware in order to provide data encryption help online at reasonable price. However, you must not contact the con artists to get back your encoded files featuring ‘.NumberDot’ suffix. Currently, there is no free decryption software released by security firms. Hence, to recover your corrupted files you got only two options: either you make use of alternative methods (it is very safe) or call con artists which surely isn’t safe at all. Both ways you will recovery your files but the difference is that first option is secure and second isn’t.

Moreover, using data recovery software, you will be able to preview important files which are corrupted by the ransomware. Even, data recovery software can be used so many times to recover your files which are even accidentally deleted from your computer as well.

Next, you can use System restore option, if you have created system restore point on your computer before the ransomware attack. System restore option allow you to restore your system to an earlier time when your files were safe. But the risk is, you may loss few files which you have saved after creating system restore point. So be careful.
