I recently installed a Chrome font of Hoefler Text thinking that it was a real font.Unfortunately, it,s not and it is actually a virus/malware called Spora Ransomware. So after realising it only for like three days, the random screen which belongs to Spora appeared in my google chrome and it had an ID key with an Authorization button.It stated that it had all my personal files and after realization, it was true. All my photos in google drive were gone and probably encrypted. It said that it will only give back my files after I pay the ransom and if i do not do it, it will delete the private key which has access to my files that its holding.Now I need a way to remove this Spora Ransomware from my PC and then to decrypt all my files from them.
