🆘 Ransom Zapper Aurora Help Center

⚙️ Getting Started

Welcome to Ransom Zapper Aurora CS — your all‑in‑one protection, optimization, and education suite for Windows users. If you're new here, this guide helps you understand how to get started and what to expect.

🔹 First‑Time Tips:
  • Use the Setup Wizard to configure key protections and whitelists.
  • Enable features like Registry Lockdown, App Protection, and Privacy Controls.
  • Customize everything to suit your workflow. Nothing is forced.
🔹 Want to start over?

You can rerun the setup wizard in the Settings menu.

🛡 Management Center

The Management Center gives you full control over startup apps, background services, and unauthorized registry entries. It silently blocks suspicious launch attempts, lets you review blocked items, and allows you to whitelist trusted apps.

🔹 What it does:
  • Monitors registry startup entries and silently blocks suspicious ones.
  • Allows reviewing, explaining, and manually unblocking apps and registry entries.
  • Enables/disables startup items and non‑Microsoft services.
  • Offers a live trust list of allowed, blocked, or pending items.
🔹 Why it matters:

Many threats sneak in by auto‑starting with Windows. This tool protects your startup environment and prevents hidden malware.

🧩 Registry Cleaner – Safe Entry Scan

The Registry Cleaner scans for invalid, broken, or obsolete entries that are safe to remove. It focuses only on harmless keys, ensuring system stability.

🔹 Scans for:
  • Missing Shared DLLs
  • Invalid Application Paths
  • Missing Fonts/Help Files
  • Dead Start Menu sort entries
🔹 When to run: Monthly or after major updates/uninstalls.

🛡 Ad‑Shield

Blocks dangerous ad networks, scam redirects, and unwanted trackers system‑wide via a safe, preloaded hosts list. No background processes.

🔹 Key features:
  • Blocks thousands of malicious domains.
  • Offline‑safe, zero performance impact.
  • Respects your whitelist.
🔹 Why it’s powerful:

Applies to every app, not just browsers, by updating the Windows hosts file.

🛡 Security Check

Combines Microsoft Defender with custom scam‑detection rules. Scans for both traditional malware and modern support scams or ransomware triggers.

🔹 Scan Types:
  • Basic Scan: Quick check of Temp, AppData, Startup folders.
  • Full Scan: Deep system‑wide inspection with Aurora definitions.

🧹 Cleaner Tool

Safely removes extraneous files to free disk space: temp files (30+ days), Recycle Bin, logs, thumbnail cache, and browser cache.
