If you browse the instructions in HTML format:
click the left mouse button on the first address (in this case it is http://cerberhhyed5frqa.xlfp45.win/B33F-61B5-F13F-0063-7090);
in a new tab or window of your web browser the site should be loaded; if it is not loaded repeat the same instructions with the second address and continue until the last address.
If for some reason the site cannot be opened check the connection to the Internet.
Unfortunately these sites are short-term since the antivirus companies are interested in you do not have a chance to restore your files but continue to buy their products.
Unlike them we are ready to help you always.
If you need our help but the temporary sites are not available:
run your Internet browser (if you do not know what it is run the Internet Explorer);
enter or copy the address https://www.torproject.org/download/download-easy.html.en into the address bar of your browser and press ENTER;
wait for the site loading;
on the site you will be offered to download Tor Browser; download and run it, follow the installation instructions, wait until the installation is completed;
run Tor Browser;
connect with the button "Connect" (if you use the English version);
a normal Internet browser window will be opened after the initialization;
type or copy the address http://cerberhhyed5frqa.onion/B33F-61B5-F13F-0063-7090 in this browser address bar;
press ENTER;
the site should be loaded; if for some reason the site is not loading wait for a moment and try again.
If you have any problems during installation or operation of Tor Browser, please, visit https://www.youtube.com/ and type request in the search bar "install tor browser windows" and you will find a lot of training videos about Tor Browser installation and operation.
If TOR address is not available for a long period (2-3 days) it means you are late; usually you have about 2-3 weeks after reading the instructions to restore your files.
Additional information:
You will find the instructions for restoring your files in those folders where you have your encrypted files only.
The instructions are made in two file formats - HTML and TXT for your convenience.
Unfortunately antivirus companies cannot protect or restore your files but they can make the situation worse removing the instructions how to restore your encrypted files.
The instructions are not viruses; they have informative nature only, so any claims on the absence of any instruction files you can send to your antivirus company.
