Best part is it doesn't slow down the PC either. It does a great job. When i purchased my new laptop it came pre loaded with Norton and it ran like a turtle. First thing i did was remove it and it improved the performance a lot. This guy is not going to solve his problem with any antivirus since it's a ransomware which requires lots of steps to be done to recover his original data if he doesn't want to pay. I did some research on this and he's in some deep Sh*t. He has to mess with registery keys as well and there's no guarantees it's going to work. I think it's game over. Can't imagine what he is going through right now 😣
 
You are attacked by Ransomware which have encrypted everything on your PC. No antivirus can help you now. My suggestion will be to wipe all your drives and try installing latest Windows 10 using USB or CD. You should Contact Microsoft, it's free of cost, they will tell you best options.

Don't rely on free antivirus given by laptop company or Microsoft company. It's give Primary alert to you when any virus detected.whenever you buy a laptop,the IT guys always suggest you to buy a internet security software or an antivirus to safe your Data while using internet.I am using Windows 7 and I didn't get attack by any ransomware till now.
