WannaCry Ransomware Decryption Issue - '00000000.dky'

gregorytg opened this issue · comments

Can you please help on this issue, I have encountered.

We have paid the ransom amount of $300 and got a message from attackers like they have confirmed the payment(last week).
But when I click 'Decrypt' and 'start' button.
The '@WanaDecryptor@.exe' application crashed and showing 'Load PerfMon Counters has stopped working'. And, I was not able to decrypt the files.

error message
Another issue, at the time of infection of ransomware, in C drive there was around 20 GB free space.
But now, it shows automatically 'no free space'.So I thought because of this issue the decryption process has stopped. Then I deleted some of the unwanted files from C drive and then again ran the application. But, still the application has crashed.
The '@WanaDecryptor@.exe' application, I have restored it from the list of quarantined files.

Also, at the time of confirmation of payment, there is a file created namely - '00000000.dky'(Key created or dropped by ransomware authors)

Then, I used the wanadecrypt tool by gentilkiwi, but only very few files got decrypted. Most of the files it showing the error as shown below.
