How to Remove King Ouroboros Ransomware from the Computer?

King Ouroboros is a file encrypting virus that is categorized as a ransomware. It is a dangerous and destructive malware that injects itself in the user’s system to encrypt the files with a powerful encryption key. The personal files of the user such as photos, videos, documents and other files are encypted with the ‘.king_ouroboros’ extension by the King Ouroboros Ransomware.

It uses a powerful AES-256 encryption algorithm to encrypt user files and then demands a ransom for the decryption key. After the data on the system is encrypted, the user is unable to open any files and is displayed with a ransom note.

King ouroboros ransomware infiltrates into the user’s system through various methods of infiltration and infect the computer. These methods include spam email campaigns, fake software update notifications, peer to peer networks, websites that are unsecure & contain dubious links, etc.

The users should be aware when installing software and while opening emails from unknown sources. These two are the most common carriers of malware viruses. King Ouroboros is installed on the system if the user rushes through the software installation steps and skips to the finish without unchecking the additional software in the Custom/Advanced settings. A user should always do a Custom install and go through all the steps manually and remove any option that pertains to extra software installation with the main software.

Similarly, the King ouroboros ransomware can be spread though spam email campaigns that contain an attached file which download the virus payload into the system once it is opened.

After its successful infiltration in the system, King ouroboros ransomware scans the system’s hard drive for potential targets for encryption. It then encrypts the files of the users including photos, videos and documents. The targeted files types include .jpg, .mp3, .mp4, .psd, .txt, .doc, .xls, .zip, .rar, .dat, .sav, .html, .wmv etc.
