**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.

*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.*

    Update 01/23/19:

    Anyone getting errors running the decrypter needs to send a PM to Demonslay335 with more information....see Post #569. He needs to know what operating system was infected, and if possible, a dump of the STOPDecrypter-log.txt, or anything in Event Viewer pertaining to the issue. He is unable to reproduce the errors and can only assume victims are not running .NET Framework 4.5.2+ or have a corrupted install of it.

    For archiving purposes in case a solution is found in the future, he will need the following three items only:

    • Personal ID (preferably from the ransom note, but can also be given by STOPDecrypter if it skipped files).
    • MAC address of the infected computer (preferably as given by STOPDecrypter).
    • Extension of files.

    Again, doing all this is not a guarantee your files can be decrypted. He has had very limited success in recovering keys thus far.

    See the previous posted update notes from January 6, 2019.

    The decrypter will be able to decrypt your files if your personal ID is6se9RaIxXF9m70zWmx7nL3bVRp691w4SNY8UCir0

    or

    The decrypter will be able to decrypt your files if your personal ID is D02NfEP94dKUO3faH1jwqqo5f9uqRw2Etn2lP3VBb

    If your personal ID is different than those keys, it will not work.
