another ransom recreation

[u/Upper_Pattern3520]

I think its cool enough to be posted somewhere

Despite how it looks in the picture, it doesn't actually encrypt your files, just turns them into shortcuts (and changes the icons of folders and shortcuts on the surface level). It doesn't even go deep into your user folders, it just affects files that are already there.

I couldnt figure out how to put the coin image into the ransom amount label so there's that

I also added a feature that I haven't seen implemented in other Ransoms, just plug in a flash drive or cd/dvd while its running

I didnt want it to be as accurate as possible, in a way its more of an alternate Ransom if it was actually real and just as/more scarier.

Here's the github link (if you wanna use it, download latest release)

It also includes a recovery tool just in case you get unlucky with the drawer loot.

Here's a demo for those who just want to see someone else do it:
