How to remove Payt Ransomware and decrypt .payt files

0
Payt is the name of a ransomware infection that encrypts system-stored data and blackmails victims into paying money for its return. It does so by adding new filenames (consisting of unique victim's ID, cybercriminals' e-mail, and .Payt or .payt extension). For instance, this is how an image file infected by Payt Ransomware will likely appear - 1.png.[MJ-YK7364058912](wesleypeyt@tutanota.com).Payt. After this, a money-demanding note called ReadthisforDecode.txt gets generated onto the desktop. As stated within this message, victims should write an e-mail to wesleypeyt@tutanota.com or wesleypeyt@gmail.com addresses and express their interest in decrypting data. It is also possible to send a test file and get it decrypted for free - this way cybercriminals seek to illustrate that their decryption actually works and can be relied on.

How to remove World2022decoding Ransomware and decrypt .world2022decoding files

0
World2022decoding is a recent ransomware infection that was spotted encrypting device-stored data and blackmailing victims to pay money for it. During encryption, all affected files get appended with the victim's personal ID, and the .world2022decoding extension as well. As a result, it acquires a new look similar to this - from previously uninfected 1.png to now restricted 1.png.[9222911A].world2022decoding. This is only an example and it can happen to any piece of data, especially documents and databases. Cybercriminals also create a text note called WE CAN RECOVER YOUR DATA.MHT that entails instructions on how to return the files.

How to fix Mail App error code 0x8000000b

0
0x8000000b is a widespread error that some users may face while trying to add a new third-party account (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, etc.) to the native Mail app on Windows. This application is built-in and can be extremely useful for managing emails in different accounts without leaving the desktop. The reason why such an error occurs is problems with syncing - that the Mail app is unable to establish a connection with an external e-mail server. This can happen due to some third-party or even native firewall blocking connection requests, disabled POP and (IMAP) settings, or even a bug in the Mail app itself. As a result, a message saying "Something went wrong. We're sorry, but we weren't able to do that." stretches over the screen and stops users from adding the account. In rarer cases, the same error may also take place when trying to send an e-mail message from one of the already-added accounts. Whatever it is, we have a list of solutions that might be able to help. Follow our guide below to try each one of them and deal with the problem eventually!

How to fix ERR_HTTP2_PROTOCOL_ERROR in Google Chrome

0
ERR_HTTP2_PROTOCOL_ERROR is quite a popular error that may occur in any browser including Chrome, Edge, Opera, Firefox, and so forth - mostly on Windows 10/11 systems. HTTP2 is a new protocol that replaced its HTTP precursor with a faster time response by consolidating files into one packet and transmitting them to the server. One of the reasons why ERR_HTTP2_PROTOCOL_ERROR occurs is because the website you are trying to visit does not support the HTTP/2 protocol - often due to cheap hosting or that the administrator of the website has not enabled this protocol on the server. This reason would be relevant if you are unable to visit one specific webpage. Otherwise, if that is the entire browsing you are facing problems with, then it could be related to more general causes like outdated browser versions, incorrect date & time settings, conflicting browser add-ons, overstuffed cache, or even experimental features leading to connection conflicts. Below, we have compiled a guide with solutions that will potentially resolve the problem and get your browser back to working again. Note that the instructions below are mainly focused on resolving the problem in Google Chrome, however, you can also use them for performing similar actions in other browsers too.
