boot-up issues

Microsoft is set to introduce a new version of the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) for Windows 11, changing its color from blue to black as part of an update aimed at enhancing user experience. The redesigned BSOD will feature a dark interface, display an error code, and identify the driver or file responsible for crashes. This update will roll out later this summer following testing with Windows 11 Insiders. The 24H2 release has improved crash dump collection, reducing downtime during restarts to about two seconds. The new BSOD will eliminate the QR code and frowning face, which are currently included. Additionally, a new feature called Quick Machine Recovery (QMR) will be introduced to address PC crashes and boot-up issues by automatically repairing malfunctioning devices through the Windows Recovery Environment. When a critical boot-up error occurs, the PC will connect to the network and send diagnostic data to Microsoft, which will then dispatch a specific fix via Windows Update. Both the new BSOD and QMR will launch later this summer for all Windows 11 24H2 devices, with QMR enabled by default for Windows 11 Home users and customizable options for IT administrators in Pro and Enterprise systems.
