So if the computer is in a boot loop, it's a self fixing problem?

That can't really be their official guidance 🀣

The official guidance has to come from Crowdstrike since it's their problem, but this tip has helped on about 50% of our affected machines so far.

Lmao that is wild

That sounds like it takes an insane amount of time though. Windows has always been slow to boot, but 15 times is crazy

Three times, you always tell me three times.

So when normal boot procedures run into BSOD again and again, Windows decides to go into maintainence or emergency mode automatically after a number of rounds? I'm positively surprised, I had not expected the system to be smart enough for that.

It just says you’re giving it a chance to pull a newer update before the buggy driver is loaded β€” sounds like a (bad) hack but I imagine it’s helpful in some cases.

lol... that's gotta be satire.

Right?

Pick up your machine and give it a shake. What do you hear?

The files are in the computer!
