My Cloud has been hacked and they ask for money to give my files files back

I have the MCM Gen 2 and the Anti-Virus Essentials has to be side loaded from a unpublished link. In my case the install fails. Those with the devices capable should install the ClamAV as a added defense.

I need to restrict my public share to read only too since my children may not be aware of what they are doing. Minecraft and Roblox download launchers are vulnerable to being spoofed when Google searching.

Yeah the side loading while it may work for certain My Cloud units may end up dragging down the My Cloud to the point its unusable per the comments in that thread.

For those interested in changing the main Public Share to private or read only:
