How to remove RBN Encryptor (Virus Removal Guide)
RBN Encryptor
The RBN Encryptor virus is categorized as ransomware that has been spreading through Europe and the United States. The RBN Encryptor virus runs and generates a unique public RSA-2048 key and a private RSA key and aggressively encrypts personal computer files that match the .xls, .doc, .pdf, .rtf, .psd, .dwg, .cdr, .cd, .mdb, .1cd, .dbf, .sqlite, .jpg, and .zip file extensions.
The RBN Encryptor virus takes control of an infected computer system and encrypts personal files. It restricts access to a computer system and will leave a message on the infected computer’s desktop, open a webpage with a message, or leave a text file demanding the computer owner pay a ransom or purchase RBN Encryptor decryption software using Bitcoins or other online credit system.
The alert message displayed by RBN Encryptor ransomware might say “Your files have been safely encrypted on this PC: photos, videos, documents, etc. Click “Show encrypted files” Button to view a complete list of encrypted files and you can personally verify this.” The message will be delivered in a new window, webpage, or text file.
Victims of the RBN Encryptor virus who pay the fine and follow the instructions on the message might be able to restore their personal files and remove the ransomware, but it is not suggested to do so. Instead, malware analysts suggest to first use various procedures and third-party computer security software to remove the RBN Encryptor virus and similar ransomware. Paying the ransom may actually cause further issues for some computer users.
