The only way to restore files would be to restore from a recent backup. There is no way to cleanly remove the virus from the machine or decrypt infected files.

Over the past few days we have noticed an increased circulation of variants of the CryptoLocker Virus, which will infect your computer and encrypt all usable files such as Word Documents, Excel, Access, MYOB, executable files…etc.
