File extension kostya seems to be related to a special ransomware that targets predominantly Czech users.
Much like similar ransomware it encrypts users documents and other personal files and demands ransom (2000 CZK) for the encryption key.
Unless some decryptor for kostye appears, there seems to be no way to access these files.
You can convert the original data only once you have successfully decrypted the files.
