The creators of TeslaCrypt have decided to throw in the towel and release the master decryption key.
What this means is that anyone infected with the TeslaCrypt ransomware with the extensions .xxx, .ttt, .micro, .mp3, or encrypted files without an extension will be able to decrypt their files for free.
Simply download the TeslaCrypt decoder here and double click it to begin the process.
All that is needed is to click the Set Key and select your encryption extension. You can select an individual file or folder or have it decrypt your entire system. Do not choose to overwrite your files.
