    Out of all the list, I would put the backup (offline) as #1. Most of the people who try and combat ransomware and viruses in general think that an anti-virus is enough, and panic when their PC gets infected and they end up having to wipe it. I would also add other tools I consider important, like Malwarebytes – the free version and Rollback Rx – free version as well. The first is an anti-malware tool that is very popular and the second is a great system restore tool.

    All of these tools are great. I use RollBack Rx Home Edition. Didn’t see it mentioned but if you want a free recovery tool it works really well!
