How Avoid Ransomware

Hello, Recently I reading topics about ransomware. A victim asking question to prevent ransomware because his PC got infected by the ransomware and stop data and computer access.. and demanding for money to the victim... his data got encrypted.

So How to avoid ransomware and prevent
to keep safe our pc in future?

Is Windows Defender can Avoid Ransomware?

 

This "trick" does not stop just Locky, but most of the malware and common users are not limited by it.

reg add "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows Script Host\Settings" /v "Enabled" /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

I like this! What do I write into either a REG or BAT file that does this? Thanks!

 

Sorry I don't completely understand what you wrote. I opened the registry, went to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows Script Host\Settings

With Settings highlighted, on the right side, I created a new DWORD 32-bit and named it Enabled, then gave it a value of 0 (zero). Is that right?

 

I think I could re-install Windows faster than deploying this 'bag of tricks' properly.

 

Into the BAT exactly that line above, into the REG, see bellow.

Yes, that is it.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Script Host\Settings]
"Enabled"=dword:00000000

 

The trick is to have all your personal files (the ones you care about) on a second drive so if you are hit, you can just format and clean install.

 

Yepperz, that's the real trick, getting people to do that BEFORE they get hit
