Play ransomware decryption

Hi everyone,

I’m in a bit of a crisis and could really use some help. My server has been infected with Play ransomware, and now all of my important files are encrypted. This data is crucial to me, and I’m not sure where to turn.

The files are now marked with the extension .play, and a ransom note titled DECRYPT_INSTRUCTIONS.txt was left in the affected folders. I have not contacted the attackers and would like to find a way to recover my files without paying the ransom.

If anyone has any experience with Play ransomware or can suggest reliable methods for decryption, data recovery, or general next steps, I would be incredibly thankful.

Thank you so much for your time and any advice you can share!
