Try this: Remove Cryptorbit Ransom virus from PC [Removal Guide]!
once files are encrypted there is no way to recover.learn from this & for future start using a good antivirus & keep it regularly updated & keep a backup of your critical files in dvd/separate hard disk connected to main system only when taking backup.

Use the MS Security Essentials and CCleaner and keep the PC optimised.
1st why do you need to encrypt your drives? These features are necessary for Data centers only.
Press F8 and enter into safe mode and do a system restore to the nearest restore point.If this does not work then you have to make a recovery disk in the safe mode with which you can recover your OS back.
Do a fresh clean Instal of the OS.
Instal and Run any good AV from this link:*www.filehippo.com/software/antimalware/
Also run Hijack this from this Link:*www.filehippo.com/download_hijackthis/

@bavusani,slow down & don't post just for the sake of posting.if you had read from the beginning you would know that drives are not encrypted but files are,by a ransomware.

Even if files are encrpted it can be de-crypted but if it is virus then a good AV is needed.Some windows updates also provide solutions to such files.

How will you decrypt the files which are encrypted by a malware? I agree with whitestar_999; you have been posting irrelevant and absolutely unhelpful posts these days. Take a break buddy. Post count is not gonna take you anywhere.

If it has been encrypted legitimately then decryption is possible or if it is done by a malware then a good AV is necessary.

How exactly will you decrypt the files if ther are encrypted legitimately?
If OP used any 3rd party software to encrypt and now he cannot decrypt them or delete them was my 1st thought.What did you think it was?
ohh...but it can be deleted but the encryption is really bad and not been able remove it by avast or by quick heal...
i dont knw if the malware is still present or not..
i've reinstalled win7 by formatting the primary drive but leaving the other data drives untouched ....
so i m not able to decrypt it or open the file...

no one can decrypt data without correct encryption key which in this case is with malware writers so forget about your data.

actually files can be decrypted if u try to restore the files what this amlware does it copies ur data and encrypts them and once they are encrypted it deletes them so if u can recover the files and simultaneously take the encrpted version of the file u can actually detect the encryption ........
there was some tool also for this i forgot abt it google it, otherwise best u can do is recover whatever u can and do a clean sweep of ur hard drive as to detect the encrytion we need huge processing power ..........

Actually I was think that if the malware actually encrypted all data, would it not have took too much time or slowed down the PC too much?

its not that it can't be decyrpted (hell nothing is impossible even if it 10 layer encryption) but it will take very huge time to do it and real professional expertise..........
best thing op can do is to recover whatever data he can using a recovery tool and then do a clean swipe of hard disk.........
ya when tat type of malware is at work the lag shld hav become noticable..........
also @op what all u accesed from ur pc so ur comp got infected just asking so as others can avoid it..........
