How to remove Tprc Ransomware and decrypt .tprc files

What is Tprc Ransomware

Tprc Ransomware is a type of malicious software that encrypts files on a victim’s computer, rendering them inaccessible until a ransom is paid. This article will provide a comprehensive overview of Tprc ransomware, including its infection methods, file extensions, encryption type, ransom note, and potential decryption tools. Tprc ransomware is a relatively new threat in the cyber world, first detected in early October 2021. It targets the Windows operating system and poses a significant risk to both individuals and organizations. The ransomware is designed to prevent victims from accessing their files through encryption. Tprc Ransomware appends the .tprc extension to filenames. For example, it renames 1.jpg to 1.jpg.tprc, 2.png to 2.png.tprc, and so forth. Tprc ransomware creates a ransom note named !RESTORE!.txt. This note states that the victim’s files have been encrypted and demands a ransom to restore access to the files. The note also provides an email address for communication regarding the payment process.

The specific encryption algorithm used by Tprc ransomware is not yet determined. However, ransomware typically uses strong encryption algorithms like AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) or RSA (Rivest-Shamir-Adleman) to encrypt files. Decrypting .tprc files without the specific decryption key is extremely challenging due to the strong encryption algorithms typically used by ransomware. As mentioned earlier, no known free decryption tool is available for Tprc ransomware. Therefore, the best course of action is to prevent infection in the first place by following best cybersecurity practices, such as regularly updating software, avoiding suspicious emails and downloads, and maintaining secure backups of important files. If a system is infected, it’s recommended to remove the ransomware using a reputable antivirus or anti-malware tool and restore the encrypted files from a secure backup if available.

How Tprc Ransomware infects computers

Tprc ransomware can infect computers through various methods. One common method involves sending phishing emails with malicious attachments or links. It can also spread through malicious downloads, such as pirated software, cracking tools, and key generators from untrustworthy sources like P2P networks, third-party downloaders, and deceptive pages.

How to protect computer from viruses, like Tprc Ransomware, in future

1. Get special anti-ransomware software

Use ZoneAlarm Anti-Ransomware

ZoneAlarm Anti-Ransomware Dashboard

ZoneAlarm Anti-Ransomware Alert

ZoneAlarm Anti-Ransomware Blocked

Famous antivirus brand ZoneAlarm by Check Point released a comprehensive tool, that will help you with active anti-ransomware protection, as an additional shield to your current protection.

The killer features of this application are: automatic file recovery, overwrite protection that instantly and automatically recovers any encrypted files, file protection that detects and blocks even unknown encryptors.

2. Back up your files

As an additional way to save your files, we recommend online backup. Local storage, such as hard drives, SSDs, flash drives, or remote network storage can be instantly infected by the virus once plugged in or connected to. Tprc Ransomware uses some techniques to exploit this. One of the best services and programs for easy automatic online backup is iDrive. It has the most profitable terms and a simple interface. You can read more about iDrive cloud backup and storage here.

3. Do not open spam e-mails and protect your mailbox

Malicious attachments to spam or phishing e-mails are the most popular method of ransomware distribution. Using spam filters and creating anti-spam rules is good practice. One of the world leaders in anti-spam protection is MailWasher Pro. It works with various desktop applications and provides a very high level of anti-spam protection.
