as the title suggests i got hit by some ransomeware today. Shut down my computer and booted in safe mode and was wondering what programs specifically you guys would use to root the bugger out.

malwarebytes has me on edge after alot of people reported malwarebytes quarantining all of your windows system files, so i dont want to run that per say...

What should i do?

Edit: i booted in safe mode and ran malwarebytes (thankfully i havent updated it in like a month, skipped the update), it found 3 infected files, restarted and booted normally and ransomeware seems gone. Id run a bunch of followup scans but my computer is so bogged down that full scans take nearly 8 hours and render the computer incapable of gaming and scanning simultaneously, though i can still browse the internet ok. Ill run it tonight though. Hopefully it doesn't come back until then.
