Just in case anyone needs it.
To fix the boot loop, blue screen of death related to crowdstrke Boot into Safe\Recovery mode in windows
Open CMD (command shell) In command shell run the following command
del C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike\C-00000291*
Reboot
My level of computer skill is one level higher than picking up the mouse and talking to the computer as if it were a CB microphone.
Scotty, is that you?
underdooted comment right here folks
the safest way is to delete C:\Windows\System32
Don't actually do this
That would give me the warm fuzzies - running a command with "crowdstrike" in it.
Crowdstrike isn’t the command, it’s a path to a folder. delete is the command.
Sorry, I skipped that day in nerd class ; )
Thanks for this, unfortunate that my laptop's power core died weeks ago.
This should be stickied
I just reboot to a Linux install.
Been Windows malware free ---- since before Windows 95
My apologies as I am behind and a little lost. What does this fix? I ask because a girlfriend of mine is down due to a Windows upgrade. Does the command fix that or something else? Thanks in advance.
Its for the recent windows update BSOD or boot loop problem that was caused by an update to the crowd strike anti virus.
Thank you.
You could also run del **
pretty sure you meant " del . "
