1. Download the XoristDecryptor.exe file and run it on the affected computer.
2. In the Kaspersky XoristDecryptor window, click Start scan.

In case an unknown malicious file was detected, the XoristDecryptor utility prompts you to send the file to [email protected]. Kaspersky specialists will analyze the file and update databases of XoristDecryptor. At the next launch, the utility will download new databases and disinfect the files. 

Sending the malicious file to Kaspersky will not only solve your problem but will also help other users who may get affected by file-encrypting ransomware. 

If XoristDecryptor was unable to decrypt the files, try using RectorDecryptor and RakhniDecryptor.  

To eliminate the risk of being affected by ransomware, install Kaspersky Internet Security and turn on its Protection against screen lockers feature. For instructions, see this article.
