**IMPORTANT UPDATE: March 14, 2024**

**StopCrypt: Most widely distributed ransomware now evades detection** [**https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/stopcrypt-most-widely-distributed-ransomware-now-evades-detection/**](https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/stopcrypt-most-widely-distributed-ransomware-now-evades-detection/ "www.bleepingcomputer.com")

 **IMPORTANT UPDATE: April 12, 2022**  

**According to information previously provided on the Emsisoft Forum, they no longer have any method to decrypt STOP (DJVU) Ransomware unless the encryption occurred before the 29th of August 2019.**That means there is **no way to decrypt files** with **Online-ID and some recent forms of STOP (DJVU)**. However, victims should at least keep trying the [**Emsisoft Decryptor**](https://www.emsisoft.com/ransomware-decryption-tools/stop-djvu "www.emsisoft.com") if infected with an OFFLINE KEY.

I**MPORTANT UPDATE: June 6, 2020**

*Beware of fake STOP ransomware decryptor.*

*A fake decryptor for the STOP Djvu Ransomware is being distributed that lures already desperate people with the promise of free decryption. Instead of getting their files back for free, they are infected with another ransomware that makes their situation even worse.*

    Demonslay335 further advises anyone infected by the .rumba extension AND has NOT already posted their info in the support topic, to please contact him via PM with your personal ID from the ransom note and MAC address(es). Preferably, he wants victims to grab the information STOPDecrypter gives them and cop/paste it in the PM as explained in Post #467. If you already have posted your information in that topic or sent him a PM with it, there is no need to do it again.

    Please read the first page of the STOP (DJVU) Ransomware Support Topic for an updated summary of this ransomware, it's variants and possible decryption solutions with instructions.

    The decrypter will only attempt to decrypt a file with a known ID (either the hardcoded one or one you provide with a key....any others will be reported and logged, with instructions to archive it in hopes of future decryption.

    There is an ongoing discussion in this topic where victims can post comments, ask questions and seek further assistance. Other victims have been directed there to share information, experiences and suggestions. All support for the STOPDecrypter decryption tool is provided in the below topic, not here.
