anyone know how to remove ransomware from a pc to decrypt files without paying?

With the encryption key.

well obviously, but how can I get it without paying?
is there any specific software i can use to retrieve it?

No dude, unless you're an actual psychic or exceptionally lucky enough to beat the odds of guessing it, you are totally fucked. Just restore from your backups and don't be a retard next time.

generally no, the encryption would be extremely shitty if there was anyone other than NSA who knew how to break it without the encryption key
your files are permanently gone, and in the future you will hopefully learn your lesson:
keep backups of shit you can't afford to lose
and don't do whatever dumb shit you did to get a virus

Depends on the type.

Sounds stupid, but try ctrl+alt+delete and see if you can start up task manager to kill the malware so that you can uninstall it and dig out all of its files. Try it in normal and safe modes. This worked for me in the past.
