Yes, your windows defender should be turned ON. If it keeps turning off then the Viruses & Malwares can come easily into your computer.
We don’t recommend to use ONLY windows defender security because it is not a good security than Norton and AVG security etc. for PCs. We’ll recommend you Norton Security, AVG Security, Mcafee etc.

If your computer keeps changing the time instead of reset to 12:00, it seems like a software issue. Yes, the option “set date time automatically” could be the root cause of this problem.

Before going to further removal steps we want to share some important information with you about the effect of further steps.
We’ll try to remove this ransomware from your computer using some reputed software like Malwarebytes, HitmanPro.Alert, Zemana etc. (in free of charge). Hopefully, we will be successful. But if you talk about data, we don’t take any guarantee of your data. Most of the time the data cannot be decryptable without their encrypter. In this case, only one option remains. You will have to recover your data using data recovery software like Recuva, Stellar Data Recovery etc. So, please let us know, will you allow us to go through the further steps?
+ 0Techexpert | #17045 Topic StarterHere is the answer of your queries.
1. If you restore your computer to the back date, all the settings of your computer will be restored. In the period of “restored date” to till now, all the apps you have installed, files, folders may be deleted. Before “restored date” the apps, files, folders will not be deleted.
2. Ransomewares encrypted data can’t be restored becuase as they have encrypted the files with a particular algorithm, so only they can decrypt them. But only the system restore process will be revert back all them. Most probably the ransomeware will not allow you to run “system restore option”.
May be they just have changed the files extension only instead of encrypt them.
eg. “abc.pdf” to “abc.4175928478.ransomed@india.com”. Please try to revert back its extension to “abc.pdf” and then open that file and let us know what happens.3. Other drives data can be restored too because restore process will be undo all the actions that happened if the restore process will be done successfully.
Now, please answer the following questions so that we can understand the current situation properly.
1. What is your operating system?
2. Is the ramsomeware giving you any message? or ask money to decrypt the files?
3. Is your browser opening up?
4. Are you able to download and then install any software from Internet? Try to download malwarebytes and the let us know.
5. Is it allow you to run the installed softwares (.exe).+ 0Techexpert | #17039 Topic StarterHi Liyatumb,
