## The stuff behind

The software is basically a "malware" version of https://github.com/SeppPenner/LustigeFehler that shows some nonsense error messages in the foreground, but encrypts data in the background.

* If the software is not run in admin mode, it will crash with an error.

* If the .exe is started in admin mode, it will run and try to encrypt all files on all drives it finds.

* Additionally, it will **hide** all folders it finds.

## Virustotal.com scans

Well, let's see what [virustotal.com](https://www.virustotal.com) shows us as information on this "virus":

* The result: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/d2a0638ffd29888de39fd138f81e667888b7c9f04649032a042bd558dec4bf98?nocache=1 --> 1 / 69 detections --> Very poor :D

## Hint

Please don't try this software on your PC. It's for educational purposes only!!!!!!
