I used sharex to record my screen while i was going through the process of the removal of jigsaw well i used rkill to kill the jigsaw process which also killed another process which sharex uses called ffmpeg (or something like that) well i got through the process of the removal and went to check my video file using wmp and it gave me an error message and couldnt play it. So i used vlc media player and it seen my video file but it stopped as soon as it started to play.
So hopefully it can be fixed because i dont wanna infect my computer just to redo the video

Vlc crashes after 2 seconds as its in the process of converting.
Thats what i was afraid of
I would set up a virtual machine and perform the tests if I was in your place
yeah I would setup a VirtualBox infect it then setup the recording software on the main os
I tried infecting my xp pro sp2 no updates on the virtual box and i kept getting an error when id execute the file so i tried it on my not so great pc and the file sure enough executed so i was like i might as well do a video on it lol i didnt have any important files on it yet so it wasnt a big deal to me. Jigsaw is pretty easy to remove for me anyways and running rkill put a damper on jigsaws game and the decrypt tool worked awesome each time. And no this testing wasnt on my main machine the laptop. Now i wouldn't risk anything but a virtual box with the the petya ransom that one sucks lol
But i made the video and put it on the tube so we can close this thread thanks guys
