An option that provides the user with more options for further actions - your computer is infected and the virus began to encrypt your data, but the encryption was stopped (for example, by turning off the power). 3. The last option is the most favorable. Your computer is infected, but file system encryption has not yet begun. If you have situation number 1, that is, all your data is encrypted, then at this stage there is no effective way to restore user information. It is likely that this method will appear in a few days or weeks, but for now experts and everyone in the field of information and computer security are scratching their heads over it.
