That aside, I've personally tested this tool against 10 different types of simulated ransomware attacks, and It stopped each and every one. It's not available to download at the time of this post, but hopefully It will be back online soon.

I think the best tip in this case is to pay attention on what you download from the internet.
It takes just a bit of responsibility

But, if you're always dealing with this type of software, than it's okay to do all that in my opinion.
Btw I didn't know that changing file extension can prevent attacks, nice thing.

It's way beyond the scope of this post to explain It.

Time permitted, I'll write a tutorial on one of my Windows-based blogs.
