Mole02 Decryptor

NOTE: Due to false positives generated by various antivirus engines, the program is stored in a password-protected ZIP file. The password for opening it is falsepositive.

The Mole02 variant of ransomware is mainly distributed via spam emails; it encrypts your files and leaves you with a ransom note which contains instructions for recovering them. Following these instructions is, of course, not recommended, especially since Mole02 Decryptor should be able to recover your files for free.

Just like other types of ransomware, Mole02 encrypts your files and requests payment in return for decryption. The message is contained in a TXT file which is opened once your files have been locked.

The encrypted files are renamed and are given the .MOLE02 extension, so it should be pretty easy to recognize which variant of ransomware you are dealing with.

The application is certainly not difficult to use. It does not come with a graphical user interface, and there are no settings for you to configure. All you need to do is launch the program and let it decrypt any files it encounters.

Once launched, Mole02 Decryptor will open up a console window and let you know that it has started decrypting files. You are not informed of the operation’s progress, however, so all you can do is wait.

When the utility has finished finding and decrypting files, it will display the “END” message and close the console window. At this point, you should check to see if all your files have been recovered.

In a nutshell, Mole02 Decryptor is a very straightforward program designed to unlock all files encrypted by the Mole02 ransomware. It is easy enough to use, as it can be launched from any location and requires no configuration.

It lacks a graphical user interface, simply opening a command-line window that is closed automatically once your files have been found and recovered.
