- Windows is experiencing a major outage, as many business computers are experiencing a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) when trying to boot.
- The outage has vastly impacted businesses like banks, airlines and airports, emergency services, and more.
- The issue relates to a faulty CrowdStrike update, but the fix will likely have to be manually applied to all affected machines.
If you are trying to log into your work computer this morning and have been greeted with a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) on that Windows machine, you are not alone. Windows seems to be facing a major outage that has widely affected businesses all over the world, with reports from regions including the US, EU, SEA, and more.
Something super weird happening right now: just been called by several totally different media outlets in the last few minutes, all with Windows machines suddenly BSoD’ing (Blue Screen of Death). Anyone else seen this? Seems to be entering recovery mode: pic.twitter.com/DxdLyA9BLA
