You linked the wrong/outdated software: https://github.com/Googulator/TeslaCrack/commit/ca30a5320ebb... > The extensions '.xxx', '.micro', '.mp3' and '.ttt' have been reported for new variants of TeslaCrypt (3.0 and 4.0), and this tool cannot decrypt them, anyway. Please use TeslaDecoder instead, with 440A241DD80FCC5664E861989DB716E08CE627D8D40C7EA360AE855C727A49EE as the key.
