I have been infected with malware which destroyed my data

[-Sky]

Hi everyone!

My laptop(windows 8.1) was attacked by a trojan a year ago.

All my data got dissapeard and locked with a MAAS suffix.


Here are two questions:


1• Is there any way i could get my data back? (I've got to say that i deleted and uploaded some files to my laptop after the attack.)


2• What should i do to remove the distruction compeletely?

Is reseting and scanning the device enough?


I'll be really glad if you could help me through. Thankyou.
