My PC has been recently infected with some kind of malware, which instantly encrypted all my files on the PC to a weird .ehiz extension which cannot be opened and left with a note to visit a site and pay to unlock them.
Since I had no control over my PC, randomly restarting, changing wallpapers etc, I went ahead and totally wiped and formatted my drive C to restore it.
I obviously lost whatever was on C, but I didn't format my second hard drive, just in case I can decrypt those files which are very very very important to me.
So, once I landed on my fresh new installation of windows, they still appear to be "locked" and under the .ehiz extension, which I couldn't get rid of. The question is, can I somehow restore their state and decrypt them?
Thanks for your time and available to any questions!
