Windows is finally kicking the Blue Screen of Death to the curb

SMRTR summary

Microsoft is replacing Windows' iconic Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) with a Black Screen of Death in Windows 11. The new crash screen will offer clearer information about system errors, including stop codes and problematic drivers, to aid in diagnosis. This change, alongside the new Quick Machine Recovery feature, aims to enhance system stability and recovery following a major outage last year that impacted millions of Windows devices.
