.popoticus Files Virus – Detailed Description
The .popoticus files virus is currently being spread using several mechanisms at once. One of the most prevalent ways is by coordinating phishing attacks — the hackers will send out emails in a SPAM-like manner and create sites that will pose as official and safe destinations. In the majority of cases they will be hosted on addresses that sound similar to often used portals and landing pages.
In addition the .popoticus files virus can be made part of a payload carrier file — this can be either a macro-infected document (across all popular file types) or a malicious setup package of a popular application: it may be an office program, a specialist utility or even a computer game. All of these files can be spread also on file-sharing networks such as BitTorrent.
Another mechanism is to embed the necessary installation code into browser hijackers — dangerous plugins made for the most popular web browsers. They are widely uploaded with fake descriptions and user reviews in order to entice the users into downloading them.
As soon as the .popoticus files virus is installed on a given computer the malicious sequence will be started. It can vary across infected hosts as the commands can be executed based on local conditions or the hackers instructions.
Common ransomware infections will start with a data harvesting module aiming to gather sensitive information both about the victims and their machines. This is done in order to generate an unique ID for each system. The collected information that is relevant to the users can be used for crimes like identity theft and financial abuse.
The gained information can be used by another module in order to identify if there are any running security applications. They can be bypassed or entirely removed and the list includes the following: anti-virus engines, firewalls, intrusion detection systems and etc.
The list of system changes that are done include the following:
Boot Options Manipulation — The .popoticus files virus can modify the system so that the main engine is called every time the computer is powered on.
Windows Registry Changes — They can be used to create new values or modify existing ones. This will lead to issues such as data loss, unexpected errors and performance problems.
Additional Payload Delivery — The made .popoticus files virus infections can be used to deploy other malware to the systems: Trojans, miners and redirects are the most common ones.
The actual file encryption process will take place once all prior modules have finished running. It will use a strong cipher in order to process target user data. Usually this includes the following files: multimedia content, archives, databases, backups, documents and etc. When this process has completed the target user files will be renamed with the .popoticus extension. A related ransomware note or lockscreen instance will be crafted automatically in order to extort the victims to pay a fee.
.popoticus Files Virus – What Does It Do?
The .popoticus Files Virus is a crypto virus programmed to encrypt user data. As soon as all modules have finished running in their prescribed order the lockscreen will launch an application frame which will prevent the users from interacting with their computers. It will display the ransomware note to the victims.
You should NOT under any circumstances pay any ransom sum. Your files may not get recovered, and nobody could give you a guarantee for that.
The .popoticus Files Virus cryptovirus could be set to erase all the Shadow Volume Copies from the Windows operating system with the help of the following command:
→vssadmin.exe delete shadows /all /Quiet
If your computer device was infected with this ransomware and your files are locked, read on through to find out how you could potentially restore your files back to normal.

Step 5 (Optional): Try to Restore Files Encrypted by .popoticus files virus.
Ransomware infections and .popoticus files virus aim to encrypt your files using an encryption algorithm which may be very difficult to decrypt. This is why we have suggested several alternative methods that may help you go around direct decryption and try to restore your files. Bear in mind that these methods may not be 100% effective but may also help you a little or a lot in different situations.
Method 1: Scanning your drive’s sectors by using Data Recovery software. Another method for restoring your files is by trying to bring back your files via data recovery software. Here are some suggestions for preferred data recovery software solutions:
Method 2: Trying Kaspersky and EmsiSoft’s decryptors. If the first method does not work, we suggest trying to use decryptors for other ransomware viruses, in case your virus is a variant of them. The two primary developers of decryptors are Kaspersky and EmsiSoft, links to which we have provided below:
To restore your data in case you have backup set up, it is important to check for Volume Shadow Copies, if ransomware has not deleted them, in Windows using the below software:
Method 4: Finding the decryption key while the cryptovirus sends it over a network via a sniffing tool.
Another way to decrypt the files is by using a Network Sniffer to get the encryption key, while files are encrypted on your system. A Network Sniffer is a program and/or device monitoring data traveling over a network, such as its internet traffic and internet packets. If you have a sniffer set before the attack happened you might get information about the decryption key. See how-to instructions below:
