Crowdstrike Blue Screen Issue

Windows outages are being reported across the globe, apparently caused by CrowdStrike endpoint sensor installed on windows systems. The symptoms include experiencing a bug check screen error related to the Falcon Sensor. 

CrowdStrike is aware of the issue, and their Engineering teams are actively working to resolve this issue to ensure a swift resolution. 

If the bluescreen/crash persists following a reboot, please follow the temporary workaround steps proposed by Crowdstrike engineering:

1.    Boot Windows into safe mode or Windows recovery environment 
2.    Navigate to the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike directory 
3.    Locate the file matching “C-00000291*.sys” and delete it. 
4.    Boot the host normally. 

BIRGER.'s team is actively working to support our customers until a fix is released by Crowstrike.
