Anti Ransom

Anti Ransom is a cool software that helps keep your computer safe from nasty threats online. While having a good antivirus and updating your programs is super important, sometimes you need a bit more protection. That's where Anti Ransom comes in!

What Does Anti Ransom Do?

This app keeps an eye on file changes on your computer. It’s designed to catch ransomware that might try to mess with your files. How does it work? Well, it creates some fake folders filled with dummy files. When ransomware tries to attack these decoy folders, Anti Ransom jumps into action!

Installing the Software

Once you download the installation kit, you’ll find several executable files inside. This can be a bit confusing if you're new to this kind of software, but don’t worry! Just look for the setup.exe file and run it. The program will handle the rest.

Internet Connection Needed

You’ll need an Internet connection because Anti Ransom downloads an extra file called procdump. If you're already connected, it will grab this automatically for you!

Keeping Your Files Safe

If you decide to uninstall the app later, it's important to keep all related files in its folder. Otherwise, you might need some advanced tools to fully remove it from your computer.

The Decoy Trick

The main idea behind Anti Ransom is simple: create random fake folders with lots of documents in different formats. Just a heads up—you can't choose how many decoys the program makes on your computer; it does that part for you!

How It Works in the Background

After setup, Anti Ransom runs quietly in the background, watching over those bait directories. If it notices any changes happening there, it tries to figure out which process is causing trouble and stop it right away.

Your Extra Layer of Security

If you're looking for that extra peace of mind and want to make sure your data stays safe from cybercriminals, then Anti Ransom could be just what you need!
