Windows 10: HELP MY FRIEND!!! WANNACRY IS BACK!

Hello Microsoft, can you help my Friend? In my Facebook group, I have a member whose laptop is infected with the "Wannacry" ransomware. I don't know whether he actually downloaded the ransomware on purpose, or not. But I think the "Wannacry" Ransomware is back. Can you guys help my friend? I am also afraid that my laptop is infected with this ransomware.


Sorry For Bad English




Look, the laptop camera is on. He also said that he did not run any programs that required camera permission, it is possible that the ransomware gave camera access to the perpetrators who created the ransomware.

Windows 10 versions not affected by wannacry

Thanks for the reply and I take security seriously and thankfully am not a click happy user as you mention. Though, with something like WannaCry, I'm at the mercy of ANY click happy user who is on the same network as I am.

After looking in to this more, I believe my personal machine running windows 10, even though they are not updated to the latest version of windows, are patched and safe from WannaCry.

For anyone else trying to figure this out on windows 10:

• Click on start icon
• Type "winver" and hit enter, this opens the windows version dialog box.
• Take note of your windows version AND OS build number.
• If your Windows Version # is 1703
  • You are protected against this current exploit.
• If your Windows Version # is 1607:
  • Check if your OS build number is equal or greater than 14393.953
  • If greater, you should be protected from the current WannaCry exploit.
  • If it's not, you should upgrade
• If your windows version # is less than 1607, upgrade immediately.
