Hello, I did test the ransomware code from the root.It encrypted the files but gave an error, ransom note and background did not appear.Could you help me please to debug the error?

hey, im looking to encrypt a whole drive however the program is just shutting or giving me a unicode error.

This is the current code im using

    # Use sysroot to create absolute path for files, etc. And for encrypting whole system
    self.sysRoot = os.path.expanduser('C')
    # Use localroot to test encryption softawre and for absolute path for files and encryption of "test system"
    self.localRoot = r'' # Debugging/Testing

As you can see im looking to encrypt the C drive and only the C drive, i do not undestand what i am doing wrong, any help would be great!

Hi, Thanks for sharing the code.
Please let me know does it only encrypt .txt extension?

If the victim reboots the PC after the encryption, the program doesn't run on start-up hence it doesn't look for the put_me_on_desktop.txt anymore so files can not be decrypted.

Hi,
Whenever I open up the RansomWare.py file on the victim machine, the files EMAIL_ME and PUT_ME_ON_DESKTOP are not being created. The files in the localroot folder are getting encrypted, but the files are not there, the background stays the same and the webpage bitcoin.org doesn't show up. I have of course changed the path to what is required, but the other features don't work. Could you help? Thanks in advance!
