We understand why you are shocked - this virus actually looks bizarre. However, it is an actual ransomware virus. If compared to other ransomware viruses, Vindows Locker ransomware significantly differs from them because it does not ask to pay the ransom via Bitcoin payment system.
Instead, it asks the victim to call a specified number and follow instructions on how to pay $349.99 "to fix the computer." In fact, this computer virus is an updated version of tech support malware, and this time it functions like a crypto-ransomware virus.
As you have noticed, it encrypts files and appends .vindows file extensions to them. Despite the fact that this virus looks poorly programmed, and the text of the ransom note contains many grammar mistakes, it is a severe Vindows Locker. How to Remove? (Uninstall Guide).
