Trojan.Ramvicrype Removal Tool

Trojan.Ramvicrype Removal Tool is a virus removal tool developed by Symantec in order to help you get rid of Trojan.Ramvicrype infections. It can be deployed on all Windows versions out there.
The Trojan.Ramvicrype virus is responsible for encrypting files on particular locations of the infected PC. It works by replacing file extensions with VICRYPT and manages to encrypt the header section of the affected files as well, making them inaccessible. It is capable of modifying registry entries to run at Windows startup.
This threat usually spreads through shared folders on networked computers so you need to disconnect the target PC from the network and Internet. Plus, you need to disable or password-protect file sharing options or make shared files accessible as ‘Read Only.’
The tool is not designed to remove infections from Novell NetWare servers. In order to remove the virus, you need to run a full system scan using an antivirus product.

Portable running mode

Trojan.Ramvicrype Removal Tool is delivered in a portable package which means you can gain access to its interface without having to go through an installation process. You simply need to run the executable file. Administrative privileges are needed for opening the program.

Virus removal options

The GUI looks simplistic so you are not going to invest a lot of time into tweaking the application’s dedicated parameters. Before activating the scan mode, it is recommended to close all running utilities and cut the connection to the network and Internet. In case you happen to run the program on Windows ME or XP, you need to turn off System Restore.
At the end of the scan process, Trojan.Ramvicrype Removal Tool reveals information about the total number of scanned files, deleted items, repaired files, terminated viral processes, and fixed registry entries. The app is able to kill the terminated processes, delete the associated files, as well as remove registry values created by the virus.

Final remarks

To sum things up, Trojan.Ramvicrype Removal Tool provides a straightforward software solution for helping you remove files infected by the Trojan.Ramvicrype virus. It does not work as an antivirus program, offering fulltime protection against the latest threats. It’s able to deal with a single virus type.
