Since when system restore started backing up User Files
They charge 0.75 or 1.5 BTC i think,so be ready to pay 500-1000$,also search for anti ransomware softwares,some might work.

System restore will remove the malware/Trojan which came up with some update or bad software/driver installation form unreliable sources/torrents etc .

OP files are encrypted and you are suggesting system restore ?
If the boot sector is infected will the system restore work ?

Happened with me as well. All files photos on my laptop were encrypted. Mostly small files below 100 mb were encrypted. However a few movies were encrypted a most were not. Didnt pay, lost all my old photographs

OMG!
Can we approach Police for this? Will having a very good anti-virus will Avoid this problem?
How can this happen actually?

Nope, most attackers are based outside India, use a good antivirus and avoid malicious links, that’s the best we can do

I believe Linux is inherently immune to such attacks. That and its negligible marketshare in the consumer space(as opposed to servers etc where it dominates) which makes it unattractive to hackers looking for the biggest payout. Security by obscurity!
Had it would be so easy to just use online available software and get your data back, attackers would not have asked for ransom.
The future path here depends on the past. If the system has a recent backup with most of the data stored then attempts could be made to restore data from a previous date by loosing the recent bytes. If the backup is not strong enough then a computer professional could be hired who will try to break the encryption. He can work on contract and needs to be paid only if data is retrieved.
Hi
Lot of antivirus companies hv released tools to decrpt fles

Nothing is immune,but it is 2000% times better
Hi, Cerber3 Ransomware is hard to be removed by common security software or traditional removal tool. To completely get rid of Cerber3 Ransomware, You should use a real-time malware removal tool. If your files-have-been encrypted, try the following methods and they might help restore your files.

if you do not know how to do, see this post:
