WinRansomProtect
Offline anti-ransomware for Windows
WinRansomProtect is a lightweight anti-ransomware tool for Windows. Most antivirus tools rely on signatures — they can only catch what they've already seen. WinRansomProtect watches behavior instead. When a process starts encrypting files in bulk or deleting shadow copies, it gets killed and the files get quarantined. 32 rules cover the main attack paths: ransomware extensions, malicious scripts, process injection, lateral movement. Everything stays local — no cloud, no telemetry, no accounts.

I've dealt with a lot of ransomware cleanup over the years. Same ending every time — shadow copies gone, files encrypted, ransom note on the desktop. So I went the other direction. It watches behavior, not signatures. Shadow copies, mass encryption, weird PowerShell — that's the pattern. 32 rules, all on your machine. No cloud, no telemetry. Runs as a service, so closing the UI doesn't kill protection. CPU stays under 5%. Not trying to replace anyone's antivirus here. Just covering the part AV tends to miss. Free 14 days if you want to try it. Curious what you think.
