I got unremovable ransomware from the soviets. There was a literal FBI investigation and out of court settlement with comcast. And because I'm on neetbux, I can't afford a computer and a console's really tough to save up for.

What games other than Final Fantasy and Chess can I get for my phone that aren't complete garbage and won't cost me with $999999999 dollars in microtransactions? MTGA is good, but I already tried it, and it's off the table, you just grind cards way too slowly

I'd be pretty bummed if I lost my data to one of these but I'd format the drives immediately, no point sitting there hoping it gets better on its own. Guess this is a good reminder to update my backup hard drive.
>>
>>686441120
What OS were you using?
It doesn't matter the lesson is backups are not optional, you have to back up everything mission critical. Buy an external hard drive. a 4TB drive is $94 on amazon. mega .nz offers 20GB for free.
My advice is disconnect the computer from the network so nothing else gets infected. And you don't need a new computer you need to format your hard drive and reinstall the operating system. Download bitdefender the free version is fine.

In my 20 years of living and pirating, this is the first time Ive seen a case of ransomware.
What kind of dolphin porn did you download OP?
>>
The answers to all your questions is I downloaded absolutely fucking nothing. It was a zero day attack on my router, then once they realized my computer was so old it only had TPM 1.0, they could do whatever they fuck they wanted with it. The malware was directly in the motherboard. I tried to clear CMOS, but all that happened was I had a blackscreen forever.

All the FBI was able to figure out how I got hacked, not who hacked me. That's the NSA's job. And the death screen was in complete russian, so I couldn't fucking read it at all. This was like 2 years ago at this point, so I can't find the death screen I got on Google Image Search.

and I wasn't even running Windows 7, I was running Windows 10, and I only figured in retrospect, but one of my very good e-friends right before the ransomware incident was actually an NSA agent. they all do the same thing, they call "information system analysts

shortly before they hardlocked me, my computer was acting up like crazy, so he ran a zillion windows commands to diagnose the problem, that dumped a log so big that we actually had exchanged our personal gmails in order to send it

He first told me just run the windows repair tool, and when I told him it didn't work, he's like what the fuck, what do you mean it didn't work? then when he looked at the massive log that windows dumped, he said jesus christ, windows actually is so smart that it's realizing it's executing the instructions out of order, and his finally i have no idea whether or not there's something wrong with your board or if you have stealth malware

did this thread just automatically get taken by the soviet botnet?

If you have an android phone download some emulators and roms. Playing with touchpad isn't best experience but turn based games like advance wars and pokemon won't be to much of a hassle. Emulators for snes, nes, gb/gba will run flawlessly even on cheapest garbage phones.
>>
>>686444480
We didn't need context for that.
Almost anything free is worthless to play but there are a few actual free gems out there.
Most things 5 to 15 dollars are gonna be full games with no bs. A bunch of indie games get ported to android these days.
Also your problem is nonexistant, if you weren't a bum you'd just buy a new rig and move on. How about you work at mcdonalds for a month, bam there's your console.
>>
>>686444634
for of all, you actually need to use linux to properly format a drive, it's called zeroing the drive, where they give two passes, with a full throttle random strings of 1 and 0, then a second pass of all 0, all windows does is just be whatever and clear the master index and the data's still there, so really intelligently designed malware will still work

there actually is a way to hook a ps5 controller up on bluetooth, but i'm the problem i'm having is that I recently had to warranty my phone, and my new phone refuses to connect to my backup at all, which had every single NES and SNES rom on it ever. the other problem is, I have no idea where the fuck to go to get roms now, because Nintendo has straight up been at war with all the rom sites lately

one day I ran a pirate copy of photoshop or something and the command prompt appeared for a split second and my computer started making loud noises like it was working really hard so I immediately hit the power button

thinking I had a virus I decided I should save my most important files and booted into a linux usb drive, the windows filesystem was perfectly intact so I transferred all my files over to my usb drive

then I rebooted my computer to see what would happen

it turned out to be ransomware and my computer got encrypted, but unlike OP all I had to do was wipe the hard drive and reinstall.

eh it's just for ease of use, you're supposed to be able to switch drives rather easily, they slot in and out, so you could have a bunch of drives stashed away and only take them out when you want to access them. of course, you could also just build another PC that would be dedicated to media storage for around the same price, and you can set up a media server.

many different solutions to OP's problem is what I'm saying.

I don't think you know I am. I'm an Elder God of the Internet. I'm fundamentally a Quaker, where I finally had unrestricted internet access in 1996 and while I didn't get Quake on launch, I got in pretty quickly. Then I ran a website, where at its absolute peak in 2003, was getting 300k unique ips a day, which was audience of a small television show within its own era, and I was making money off the google ad banners doing it. I didn't make enough to be set for life, but I did make enough money that I could whatever the hell I wanted when I went back to college.
