Ok. Not sure if you can do this but I’d back up the file just incase.
Quoted from a website.
There is a faulty channel file, so not quite an update. There is a workaround… 1. Boot Windows into Safe Mode or WRE. 2. Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike 3. Locate and delete file matching “C-00000291*.sys” 4. Boot normally.
Yeh I’ve been following. Unfortunately I don’t have admin privileges! Many other people also will not. This probably means every single laptop or device needs manual attention from their IT guy. Very fun in today’s WFH environment
My teams work computers keep blue screening 👌
Crowdstrike lol.
I’m just watching the carnage unfold.
I’m watching the news and the newsreader (Sandra sully?) just asked some expert “and should we panic?!” 😂🤣
E: now she’s telling people not to panic. Must have got told off in the ad break
Notice she’s on the couch and not the news desk?
They seem to be leaning in to the drama
haha not much else to do they’re saying, time to crack open the wine!
🐧🐧 here. I am just gonna sit here and be smug like the Linux user I am (yes at work too)

Looks like I’m not going home on time tonight :|
This would be so fine with me except I use work laptop for recreational activities while not working 😔 and now I’m finished work 😔
Did yours blue screen?
My work laptop hasn’t done it yet.
Yep. Now it’s in a blue screen loop. When I restart I get to log in page and it just blue screens again

There’s a manual fix which involved rebooting and deleting a file I think.
I don’t know the details of it yet.
