Wanakiwi is a free and essential tool designed to help you recover files encrypted by the notorious WannaCry ransomware. Compatible with Windows XP through 7, Wanakiwi can save your data as long as you haven't restarted your computer since the infection. This lightweight command-line program retrieves your files without deleting the encrypted versions, which remain on your device with the WNCRY extension. After recovery, it's advisable to format your device and install an unaffected version of Windows, such as the updated Windows 10 that blocks WannaCry. While Wanakiwi can't prevent ransomware infections, it can be a lifesaver in critical situations.

Really enjoying Wanakiwi, but I’m not sure about the notification system. Sometimes I miss messages because of it. Otherwise, the connections I’ve made are great!
