      You were supposed to delete \windows\system32\drivers\crowdstrike\C-00000291-*.sys, not all of \windows \system32. I know the buttons are right next to each other and all, but come on…

        I assumed I did something wrong. I initially blamed explorerpatcher. Made sense (at the time) to get it fixed before I had to work Friday morning

        Now it doesn’t even have the stuff my company installed! Woops

        The worst bit was once I finally called IT (~10pm, was gonna leave a message or something) they had a recorded message saying they were aware of the BSOD issue. Facepalms were indeed had

        I want to say I wish they’d sent out some kind of email asap, but I can’t really say I wouldnt have tried to fix it myself. Safe mode wasn’t working!! Literally never seen that happen. Oh well, lesson learned
