Remove Kasp Ransomware

Kasp ransomware is designed to encrypt your personal document files and request bitcoin to retrieve the files. The ransom demand differs from different versions of the Kasp ransomware.

Kasp ransomware encrypts files on your computer and adds a string of unique characters to the extension of the encrypted files. For example, image.jpg becomes image.jpg.Kasp

The decrypt text-file with instructions is placed on the Windows desktop: DECRYPT-FILES.txt

In most cases, it is not possible to recover the files encrypted by Kasp ransomware without the intervention of the Ransomware developers.

The only way to recover files infected by Kasp ransomware is to pay the ransomware developers. Sometimes it is possible to recover your files but this is only possible when the ransomware developers made a flaw in their encryption software, which unfortunately doesn’t occur frequently.

I do not recommend paying for the Kasp ransomware, instead, make sure you have a valid FULL back-up of Windows and restore it immediately.

Having said that there are no tools at this moment to restore your encrypted files by the Kasp ransomware because the decryption key used to recover your files is server-side meaning the decryption key is only available from the ransomware developers.

There is a Kasp ransomware removal tool to remove the ransomware file.

Try to decrypt files using online tools

You can try to restore files using the ID Ransomware decrypt tools. To proceed you need to upload one of the encrypted files and identify the ransomware that infected your computer and encrypted your files.

If a decryption tool is available on the NoMoreRansom site, the information will show you how to proceed. Unfortunately, this almost never works out. Worth the try though.
