How to remove Jkwerlo Ransomware and decrypt no extension; filenames remain unchanged files

Jkwerlo Ransomware is a type of malware that encrypts files on a victim’s computer and demands a ransom in exchange for the decryption key. It typically infects computers through malicious email attachments, fake software updates, or exploit kits.

The ransomware adds a random file extension to encrypted files, making them inaccessible to the user. It uses strong encryption algorithms such as AES or RSA to lock the files.

After encrypting the files, Jkwerlo Ransomware creates a ransom note usually named “README.txt” or “HOW_TO_DECRYPT.txt”, which contains instructions on how to pay the ransom and receive the decryption key. The note is usually placed in every folder containing encrypted files or on the desktop.

Unfortunately, there are no decryption tools available for Jkwerlo Ransomware at the moment. However, if you want to attempt decrypting the files without the extension, you can try using a data recovery tool or seek help from a professional cybersecurity expert. Keep in mind that paying the ransom does not guarantee that you will receive the decryption key or that your files will be restored.
