        I’m watching the news and the newsreader (Sandra sully?) just asked some expert “and should we panic?!” 😂🤣

        E: now she’s telling people not to panic. Must have got told off in the ad break

            Yep. Now it’s in a blue screen loop. When I restart I get to log in page and it just blue screens again

              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.

              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
