How to remove a banner from the desktop? This question interests many people who are in such trouble. Ransomware banners have long been the cause of the spoiled nerves of a large number of users. You can catch this rubbish very easily, but few know how to get rid of it.
Banner virus can be picked up when visiting unsafe sites, using unreliable or downloaded software from unverified sources. To prevent this problem from occurring, it is best to download software from the sites of its manufacturers, and the suspicious file should be checked by antivirus online. But if the pest has already entered the computer, in this article you will find information on how to remove the virus banner.
Usually, all banners of this type require money, and also threaten the user with data loss and other troubles. In no case do you need to send SMS and pay in other ways - this does not always help. Almost any user, having learned how to remove the ransomware banner, will be able to do this on their own. There are several ways to do this. The most radical way to remove the banner is to reinstall the OS, but this rarely comes to that.
An effective tool in the fight against a pest is to enter the desired code. Almost every ransomware contains a field for him. You must go to the Kaspersky or DrWeb sites from another computer. There are images of the most common ransomware and codes for them. You need to find the code for the desired banner and enter it. The code can also be found by phone number, which is contained in the text of the banner. However, the codes you need are not always available. If this tool does not help, there is nothing left to do but remove the banner in other ways.
You need to reboot, and then press "F8" to select various boot options and boot in safe mode with a supported command line. If this mode does not start, then you need to download and burn it to any Live CD media on which there is a
registry editor. A bootable OS disk may also help.
After starting in safe mode and gaining access to the desktop, in the Start menu, enter regedit in “Find programs and files” (“Run” in WinXP). After starting the registry editor, you need to check the sections where the virus keys may be hidden. You need to go to \ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows NT \ CurrentVersion \ Winlogon ".
In the list of parameters Shell should have only “explorer.exe”, and Userinit should contain only “C: \ Windows \ system32 \ userinit.exe”. If the values are different, they need to be changed to the above ones by right-clicking on the parameter and selecting “Change”. After a reboot, Dr.Web Cureit must be checked for reliability.
Another way to remove the banner is to use Kaspersky WindowsUnlocker. To do this, you need to write KasperskyRescueDisk from the site to any media and boot from it. Then you will need to accept the license, select the language and graphics mode. In the main menu, select “Terminal”, then enter “windowsunlocker”. After that, you need to press 1, and then 2. After the program has completed all the actions, you need to press 0 to exit, then reboot. Next, you need to carefully check the system for viruses, as well as other malware. Before that, you should update your anti-virus databases.
