No. &nbsp;Restore from your backup. <br />

Run a thorough scan with your Anti Virus first.

Can try Idransomware and Nomoreransom to see if any decryptor but noted this variant is rather new. Nonetheless the expert is right, start data recovery and rebuild your machine. You may copy a set of those encrypted files in case a decryptor become available - but I wouldn't depend on it.<br />

What happened was someone mapped the backup shared drive on the hyperv and those got encrypted as well. thank you for the links
</div>

The Ransomware spread through mapped network drive as well. Looks like no other data backup then left with no choice. Advise not to pay ransom as there is still no guarantee. Anyway, consider checking the portable external storage media too..

Your best bet is to restore from backup.<br />

Encryption is the process of encoding messages or information in such a way that only authorized parties can read it. In an encryption scheme, the intended communication information or message, referred to as plaintext, is encrypted using an encryption algorithm, generating ciphertext that can only be read if decrypted. For technical reasons, an encryption scheme usually uses a pseudo-random encryption key generated by an algorithm. An authorized recipient can easily decrypt the message with the key provided by the originator to recipients, but not to unauthorized interceptors.

Encryption

Ransomware is malicious software, designed to block data access in order to extort money. As a form of malware, ransomware is most often used to infiltrate devices through infected emails or links that, in turn, recognize and take advantage of vulnerabilities in the operating system and installed third-party software.

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.
