How to Quickly Fix Crowdstrike BSOD

This issue is affecting millions of computers worldwide, impacting businesses, airlines, and more. Crowdstrike has identified the problem and reverted the changes, but affected systems still need manual intervention.

Workaround Steps:

Step 1. Boot Windows into Safe Mode or the Windows Recovery Environment

Step 2. Navigate to the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike directory

Step 3. Locate the file matching “C-00000291*.sys”, and delete it.

Step 4. Boot the host normally.

This Should Work! (Thanks to my man from this Reddit thread!)
