Earlier today, companies around the world woke up to multiple of their Windows hosts suffering from BSOD, the culprit? an Update to CrowdStrike Falcon Sensors. Causing services around the world to go down. Many services are suffering because of this.

Crowdstrike has since rolled back the update, but in case you are suffering from BSOD the currently only workaround is
- Boot Windows into Safe Mode or the Windows Recovery Environment
- Navigate to the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike directory
- Locate the file matching “C-00000291*.sys”, and delete it.
- Boot the host normally.
