How to remove Shopsave.me (ShopSave)
Ads by Shopsave.me are generated by a browser-based add-on that can be installed to Chrome, Firefox, or Internet Explorer. Shopsave.me is adware designed to earn money on unlucky users. In particular, by showing various coupons, offers, and banners leading to dubious pages. Sometimes displayed banners can look useful or even legitimate, however, they are often meant to conceal underlying redirects to third-party pages. In other words, if you click on the eBay sale banner powered by Shopsave.me, you will see a chain of dozen websites opened before you end up on the intended page. Such ads are usually scattered around all websites you visit, so there is no way to evade them as long as Shopsave.me is present on your PC. All adware-related changes pose nothing, but performance decrease as well as security threats. This means an unwanted app is likely to slow down your system and wield access to your personal data (passwords, IP addresses, geolocations, etc.) entered during the browser session. Therefore, Shopsave.me is strongly advised to undergo thorough removal as it brings no positive value to your experience. If you struggle to do it on your own, feel free to follow our tutorial down below.
How to remove BestZiper
BestZiper has been categorized as an unwanted piece of software that displays annoying ads, slows down the browsing speed, and runs stealth collection of personal data. Initially, it is presented as a useful add-on and desktop application helping users archive and unzip their files. Even though this may be helpful for some people indeed, there is hardly any room to trust BestZiper. As we mentioned, it features a number of intrusive ads stacked and laid over each other on any website you open. Various coupons, text ads, banners, and pop-ups are likely to store redirects to unwanted, malicious, or fake pages offering to download some software or updates. In addition to that, you may see such ads marked under tags like
Powered by BestZiper
, Brought to you by BestZiper
, RocketTab powered by BestZiper
, Ads by BestZiper
or Ads powered by BestZiper
. These and more changes imposed by BestZiper serve as tools helping frauds earn illegal money. The adware may also gather your data (e.g. passwords, IP addresses, geolocations, etc) and sell it to third-party figures. Considering these threats are present, there is no doubt BestZiper has to be removed from your system. However, in most cases, it ends up being a struggle to delete BestZiper for users facing such infections for the first time. This is why we decided to make instructions explaining how to get rid of BestZiper completely. How to remove Xorist Ransomware and decrypt .divinity, .matafaka or .army...
Divinity, Matafaka, and Army are three ransomware infections released by the development group known as Xorist. After your system becomes successfully infected, a virus forces most of the stored files to change their names. Depending on which version attacked your PC, any image, video, music, or document file like
1.pdf
will change to 1.pdf.divinity
, 1.pdf.matafaka
, or 1.pdf.army
. After each file ends up visually changed, the above-mentioned versions display a text message in pop-up windows or notepad files (HOW TO DECRYPT FILES.txt). The text differs for each version. To illustrate, Matafaka and Army show barely any information about data decryption. They mention your PC is hacked, but provide zero information or payment instructions to restore the data. The reason for that may be that these versions are still in development and testing. Not excluded that there are complete versions with full-fledged instructions already circulating around the web. Divinity is the only version out of the list having contact details to pay for the ransom. For this, users are asked to write a direct message to @lulzed Telegram or @dissimilate on Twitter. Note that the Xorist Ransomware family uses XOR and TEA algorithms to encrypt personal data. Data encrypted by such ciphers are less likely to be decryptable without the involvement of cybercriminals. Despite this, it is expressly advised against meeting the demands of fraudulent figures. How to remove Herrco Ransomware and decrypt .herrco files
Herrco is categorized as a malicious ransomware program. Malware of such type searches for important data stored on a PC and blocks access to it using cryptographic algorithms. The main target of Herrco developers centers around business owners that earn supposedly enough money to pay for the decryption of files. Extortionists behind Herrco Ransomware set up their software to change all relevant data with the .herrco extension. For instance, a file named
1.pdf
will change its look to 1.pdf.herrco
at the end of encryption. Such a change is therefore followed by the creation of How to decrypt files.txt. This is a text file meant to explain decryption in detail. It is said the only way to recover your data on the infected network is to contact developers and pay the so-called ransom. The price is kept secret and depends on how fast you reach out to cybercriminals. To get the conversation with cybercriminals underway, victims are asked to open the Tor link and fill in their personal ID, which is stated on top of the ransom note. Before doing so, it is also proposed to send a couple of files that do not contain valuable information for free decryption. How to recover deleted files in Windows 10
Data loss has become one of the most acute problems since computers took a solid place in our lives. Sometimes losing precious data may cost lots of nerves whilst desperately trying to pull back. The data can be lost either by inadvertently deleting files or due to malware intervention that can infect your device via multiple methods. Fortunately, whilst recovering data attempts may seem useless and hard, Windows offers a range of in-built features that, in most cases, allow users to get their files back. Windows is designed cleverly and keeps the so-called shadow copies of each data piece stored on your PC. It can also potentially retrieve files from Backup if the OneDrive option is enabled. Of course, if you processed the removal via secondary utility, then more likely you will not be able to get your data back, because these kinds of software primarily focus on clearing up all of the data traces. Rarely, some of them can restore previous removal sessions and prevent unintentional data meltdown. In this article, you will learn both in-built and additional options that will presumably help you recover the lamented data.
How to fix “Something went wrong” error in Windows 10
"Something went wrong. Try to Reopen Settings Later" is a message faced by users when trying to open Windows Update Center. This, therefore, prevents users from having any further interaction with updates (checking or installing them). Such an error may happen for a number of reasons. Most often there are configuration or compatibility issues that people are often not aware of. Any third-party software or inner Windows problems could be the reason causing your Update Center to a fault. It is quite hard to pinpoint which reason has forced the issue to come straight away, so it is necessary to test all available solutions until you find the right one. Below, we will deconstruct a couple of methods able to solve the "Something went wrong" error. Make sure to follow each step carefully without missing any details.
How to remove Keversen Ransomware and decrypt .keversen files
Keversen is a ransomware-type virus that targets strong encryption of data. This is meant to tug victims into paying the so-called ransom in order to decrypt the blocked files. All instructions on the recovery process get revealed after your files end up encrypted. The Keversen virus renames a wide range of personal data (photos, videos, documents, databases, etc.) with the .keversen extension. To illustrate, a file like
1.pdf
will change to 1.pdf.keversen
straight after encryption. All of this happens in a blink of an eye, so there is no way to prevent it unless you have a special anti-ransomware program installed. Then, right after this stage of infection gets to a close, Keversen Ransomware moves next to creating the !=READMY=!.txt note, which sheds some words on how to regain your data.
