🚨A URGENT SHARE SOMEONE NEED IT🚨
A widespread Windows outage is not what businesses need on a Friday afternoon. The screenshot below (from SMH) shows the cause of the issue in tiny text - a device driver called csagent.sys. Here's how to fix it, according to a reliable source:
1. Restart Windows and boot into Troubleshooting mode
2. Open a command prompt
3. Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike
4. Locate the file matching "C-00000291* sys", and delete it.
[was: Rename the file CSAgent.sys to something else, eg. donotcrash.sys]
5. Continue normal startup
