How to fix CrowdStrike Blue Screen error on Windows 11 - Windows Central
If your PC is getting a BSoD error, you're not the only one, but here's a workaround to mitigate the problem.
If you have a computer running
Windows 11 (or 10) connected to an organization using the Falcon Sensor app from CrowdStrike and it's experiencing a Blue Screen of Death (BSoD) error, you're not the only one. In this guide, I will explain the easy workaround to resolve this issue.
On July 19, 2024, Windows users worldwide experienced perhaps the most historic network outage ever seen. Computers suddenly started to crash with a
Blue Screen of Death (BSoD) error, affecting airlines, banks, emergency systems, and TV news channels.
However, this time around, it wasn't Microsoft's fault. Instead, it was a bug in a driver update that the
cybersecurity company CrowdStrike pushed out to Windows.
The cybersecurity company quickly acknowledged the problem, solved the issue, and quickly started to work with customers to implement a solution. However, it's still unclear how long it will take for every affected device to receive the fix.
Still, if your computer is showing a BSoD due to the CrowdStrike update, there's an official workaround that you can apply to a computer that only involves deleting a few driver files from the system.
In this
how-to guide, I will explain how to quickly fix the CrowdStrike bug problem on Windows 11 (and
10). It's important to note that devices still running Windows 7 or 2008 R2 and computers running macOS or Linux were unaffected.
Important: If the computer uses
BitLocker encryption, you may need to enter the recovery key to proceed with the startup process.
