How to remove Tronas ransomware

Tronas ransomware is the cryptovirus that displays a fake Windows update window to mask the encryption process

Tronas ransomware is the cryptovirus that encrypts files using AES and RSA military grade encryption^[1] algorithms and marks encoded data with .tronas extension. This is yet another version of Djvu ransomware that came out in March alongside other twenty variants. The ransom note and the email used by the virus developers, which is given to contact them, appears to be changed while different versions share the same information for a long time. The ransom note is called _open_.txt, which is offering to pay a ransom fee in three days to receive a $490 discount. It seems to be a significant amount of money, when the full ransom amount seems to be $980. However, do not contact virus developers, especially when there is a possibility to restore some files you shouldn't pay the ransom, and make sure you remove Tronas ransomware instead. Use the tool that was developed for STOP ransomware which has already been updated, as Michael Gillespie reports in his

The month of March 2019 was big for the family of ransomware that Tronas files virus belongs to. Besides this particular threat Djvu ransomware developers released twenty more new versions to the wild. All versions appear slightly changed, and not many of them have distinct features besides the individual file markers or email addresses.

Tronas ransomware virus was one of the last ones discovered at the end of the month alongside Drume ransomware and Grovas file encrypting virus. Malware researcher Michael Gillespie, mentioned in the beginning, analyzed the behavior of this virus and like other versions, this threat runs the encryption process while showing Windows update installation window on the screen for the victim. This way the initial file-locking process gets masked by the fake updating. 

Since Tronas ransomware belongs to the well-known virus family named STOP virus, the decryption tool can work. The same Demonslay335 reports about possible updates to the decrypter that make it possible to decrypt the newer versions.

However, Tronas ransomware developers haven't altered the virus too much. The ransom note file name changed, but the text remains the same as previously, ransom message even contains the same half off discount offer. _open_.txt reads the following:
