Furthermore, UltraCrypter adds a .cryp1, .crypz, or .crypt extension (some newer variants add 5 random symbols or doesn't add any extension) to the name of each encrypted file.

Following successful encryption, UltraCrypter generates three different files: .bmp (which is also set as the desktop wallpaper); .txt, and; .html. These files have an identical naming format - [Victim’s personal ID].
