Frs Ransomware is a recently discovered file-encrypting infection that, at the time of research, was not decryptable. That means that recovering the files corrupted by it was not possible. The creator of the infection, however, wants you to believe that a program called “FRS Decryptor” can help you. The goal is to make you pay a ransom of 0.05 Bitcoin. Although that is just around $300, it is highly unlikely that you could get your files recovered if you followed the instructions and paid the ransom. Our Anti-Spyware-101.com research team advises focusing on the removal of Frs Ransomware instead. This infection is incredibly malicious because it was created and is controlled by vicious cyber criminals. If you do not want to be under their control any longer, deleting the infection is the first step you need to take. Hopefully, you have backups for all encrypted files, but even that you need to worry about after you eliminate the malicious ransomware.

The research shows Starbax@tutanota.com Ransomware could be a new version of a malicious file-encrypting program known as RotorCrypt Ransomware. Just like the previous variant, it enciphers user’s personal data with a secure encryption algorithm. As a result, the affected data becomes unrecognizable, or in other words, it can no longer be opened by the user. Usually, such threats leave ransom notes to offer a decryptor and ask for a ransom, but in this case, the malicious program does not leave any messages. For more information about this malware we invite you to review the rest of our article, but if you would like to erase Starbax@tutanota.com Ransomware as fast as possible we would recommend sliding below the text instead; there you should find our provided removal steps.

Of course, this might change soon, i.e. cyber criminals might start distributing it actively in order to obtain money from users. If you have encountered the new version of Silentspring Ransomware demanding money in exchange for the decryption tool, you should know that paying money to cyber crooks is the worst users can do.
