Hello, my computer was attacked by LETO ransomware a few days ago. I clicked a link from my e-mail (I thought it was from FedEx!) and suddenly my AVG detected a bunch of Trojan files entered the computer system. There was a fake Windows-update popped up (I ended it from the task manager before it reached 100%) and my computer also became disconnected from the available internet connection. AVG and Windows defender could detect the malicious threats, but they could not delete nor move those to quarantine. I checked all my files and they are all encrypted with .leto extension after that.
I did data backup then reinstall the Windows and scanned my PC with AVG, Spyhunter, and Kaspersky. The PC was then declared clean by those three programs. My questions are:
1. By reinstalling Windows, does that mean I also remove and get rid of the virus/malware completely?
2. How do I decrypt the now-encrypted .leto files? I've read a bunch of articles from the internet and tried your DJVU Decryptor, but it was unable to decrypt the files with this error note >>
Error: List that this enumerator is bound to has been modified. An enumerator can only be used if the list does not change.
Error: Unable to decrypt file with ID: dR3CqxAcqVUrEckQXmOIcWGPygjWWxy6QFI5Ole6
Please help. I truly appreciate what you guys do here on Emsisoft. Thank you.

Thanks @Amigo-A for your kind response. I have tried to use the same decryptor you linked to and the result was:
Error: Unable to decrypt file with ID: dR3CqxAcqVUrEckQXmOIcWGPygjWWxy6QFI5Ole6
Does it mean that my files are encrypted with online keys so I have no chance to get my files back?
Should I hang to these encrypted files, waiting until someone invented the tools that can decrypt my files? Or should I just start saving to pay the ransom? I certainly don't want to pay these criminals, but I also want to get all my files (or at least some of them) back. Please suggest what else needs to be done.
