LataRebo Locker Ransomware

LataRebo Locker Ransomware is an annoying computer infection that tries to threaten unsuspecting users into spending their money for nothing. This program may look very much like a crypto ransomware application, but it is very far from it. You should pay no heed to whatever this program has to tell you. Remove LataRebo Locker Ransomware from your computer following the removal instructions you will find below, and then get yourself a licensed security application that will help you ensure your system’s safety. There are far too many threats out there to leave everything to luck and carry on without a reliable security application.

Perhaps we should start from describing how this program enters target systems. LataRebo Locker Ransomware does not spread through spam email attachments like regular crypto ransomware programs do. Rather than that, it takes the same route as most of the browser hijackers, adware programs, freeware apps, and other low-key security threats. To put it simply, it comes bundled with third-party software installers. It also means that users install LataRebo Locker Ransomware on their systems willingly, although they obviously are not aware of that. To minimize the danger of unwanted installations, users should definitely be more careful about the sites they visit and the applications they download.

If you think that you really need a particular program, you should make sure you download it from its official vendor’s website. What’s more, sometimes even the official vendors bundle their software with some additional features (like toolbars or search engines), so it is ALWAYS a good idea to read the installation steps one by one. This way, you would avoid installing unnecessary features that could later on slow down your browser or pose specific threats to your computer. Needless to say, LataRebo Locker Ransomware is also one of those applications you could avoid.

However, if this program managed to slip into your system, you will have to deal with it immediately. In a way, it is a good thing that screenlockers do not try to hide their presence. Upon the infection, the program will kill the explorer.exe process, thus blocking you from accessing the Windows interface. It will also lock your screen, displaying the following notification:

Your computer has been locked by LataRebo Locker!

Buy unlock key for 10EURO paysafe card pin and send it to this facebook page via pm : facebook.com/TheDarkJoJo. Im gonna check if it’s working and then your key will be given in 24 hours. After using the correct unlock key, you should open task manager and close this program, explorer will work too. Good luck

When the “ransom” fee is this low, some users might be willing to pay to unlock their screens, but the point is that you can do it yourself by killing the malicious process and restoring your desktop access. LataRebo Locker Ransomware does not have any additional files. The one file that you downloaded in a software bundle will be responsible for everything this program does. Hence, you need to remove this file.

If you cannot find the file you downloaded and launched, you should scan your computer with the SpyHunter free scanner. It is always a good idea to rely on a computer security application because it can locate and delete all the potential threats automatically. After all, LataRebo Locker Ransomware arrives in bundled software packages, so it means that there are quite a few other unwanted applications on-board, too. Instead of looking for them one by one, it is a lot faster and more efficient to terminate them all in a single swift motion.

To be able to use the security application of your choice you still need to close the screenlocker message, and, for that, you will have to follow the instructions below. If something goes wrong, please feel free to leave us a comment.

Finally, once your computer is clean again, do not forget to protect it from potential threats by acquiring a powerful antispyware application. Also, you should be careful about the websites you visit and the links to click. Please remember to avoid downloading software from file-sharing websites because then another potential security threat will enter your computer again, and you will have to start this fight all over.
