Hello François,

The extension  .$#! has never been used by AxCrypt. It has however been used by something called Cryptext : see http://filext.com/file-extension.php?extension=%24%23%21 .

If the files are also green, it means they have been also encrypted with Windows Encrypting File system. You might start here for more information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encrypting_File_System .

So, it seems the files are doubly encrypted – and not at all with AxCrypt. Sorry!
