If your computer is infected, files with extensions listed above will be encrypted with AES encryption and protected with password and their extension changed to ecc. The file after encryption looks like this example: nameoffile.doc.ecc.
You will be asked by Warning message with information about infection and how to remove encryption with pay instructions.
A HELP_RESTORE_FILES.txt file also be generated in each affected folder with the instructions about how to restor your files.
You need to have a previous backup of your data → clean your computer with antivirus software, or reinstall operating system → restore your data from backup.
There is no 100% successful way how to remove encryption without pay to virus developers. However, people are working on a decryption utility and for example Cisco TeslaDecrypt utility is partially successful in certain scenarios.
These files cannot be converted, you have to decrypt them.
