How to remove Restoreserver ransomware

Restoreserver ransomware – cryptovirus that demands a ransom within 48 hours or encrypted data will be deleted

Restoreserver ransomware is a virus that, after gaining access to a targeted computer, encrypts all users' non-system files with a powerful AES + RSA^[1] algorithm mixture. The restoreserver file-locking parasite is from the renowned Scarab ransomware family. Malware from this family was first apprehended in June 2017. After the encryption of all victims' personal data is completed, a ransom note, named “HOW TO RECOVER ENCRYPTED FILES.TXT”, is created in all affected folders. All files are appended with double extensions –  first a sequence of random characters, second – .restorserver.

Within the Restorederver virus ransom-demanding note, victims can find an explanation of what has happened and what to do to get their files back. Cybercriminals are urging people not to try and decode their locked data with third-party software because that could lead to permanent data loss.

They're providing an email address to establish a contact (restoreserver@mail.ru) and pushing the victims to do that within 48 hours, or their personal decryption key will be deleted, and thus the encrypted data will be lost forever. A personal Restoreserver ransomware virus identifier is prescribed and should be given to the cyber thieves upon communication.

We always advise against contacting the criminals, or even worse – meeting their demands. According to experts^[2], victims should use a trustworthy anti-virus (AV) program to remove Restoreserver ransomware from infected devices. Apps like SpyHunterCombo Cleaner and MalwarebytesMalwarebytes automatically find viruses, isolate, and delete them automatically. Furthermore, dependable AVs like these will protect devices from ransomware and other malware attacks in the future.

Developers of the Restoreserver ransomware enclosed this message in the ransom demanding note:

Sadly, Restoreserver ransomware removal won't unlock encrypted data. Only the creators of the ransomware can do that, well, at least for now. Transfer all locked files to an offline storage device, like a USB drive, and wait for a decryption tool to be made available to the public.

If you were wise enough to have backups of all your important data – everything's much easier for you. After the Restoreserver ransomware virus is successfully eliminated from infected devices, run a full system scan with FortectIntego to automatically find and fix any harm the virus has done to your system files and its settings. Afterward, retrieve your desired data from the backups and stay safe.

Distribution of malware on the internet

Cybercriminals have numerous ways at their disposal to infect unaware peoples' devices. Although the most popular methods are: infectious email hyperlinks/attachments and file-sharing platforms. 

Developers of malware tend to hide their creations in both mischievous email hyperlinks and email attachments. The letters might seem that they're coming from a trusted source, like your bank or the company you work for, but actually, they might be coming from the perpetrators. Never open fishy looking emails, and always scan all email attachments with a proper AV app prior to downloading it.

Another sure way to infect your device is when downloading something from a file-sharing platform like The Pirate Bay, BitTorrent, etc. Anyone can upload whatever they want to these sites and choose whichever name they want for the files. Instead of downloading, e.g., PhotoShop crack, soon to be victims could be downloading ransomware or any other kind of malware. Try and avoid these sites and support your beloved app developers by buying their creations from their official websites.
