        There’s a manual fix which involved rebooting and deleting a file I think.

        I don’t know the details of it yet.

          Yeh I’ve been following. Unfortunately I don’t have admin privileges! Many other people also will not. This probably means every single laptop or device needs manual attention from their IT guy. Very fun in today’s WFH environment

        Ok. Not sure if you can do this but I’d back up the file just incase.

        Quoted from a website.

        There is a faulty channel file, so not quite an update. There is a workaround… 1. Boot Windows into Safe Mode or WRE. 2. Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike 3. Locate and delete file matching “C-00000291*.sys” 4. Boot normally.
